AirTrunk and Johor Special Water (JSW) have launched a partnership to develop Malaysia’s largest recycled water supply scheme to support AirTrunk’s data centre campuses, JHB1 and JHB2, in Johor. The project will use treated wastewater to reduce reliance on potable water, conserving local resources and enhancing the sustainability of data centre operations.
The initiative involves major investments in water treatment and delivery infrastructure, complementing AirTrunk’s energy-efficient systems, including a liquid cooling setup introduced at JHB1 in 2024. JSW, a state-owned entity via Permodalan Darul Ta’zim, is leading the collaboration with AirTrunk and local partners. The project is backed by the Johor state government, which sees it as a model public-private partnership benefiting both the environment and the local economy.
