Bitdeer AI has secured another 65.1 MW of future AI-cloud capacity at its Johor Bahru campus in Malaysia, expanding a data-center strategy that grew out of the company’s Bitcoin-mining infrastructure business.

The company entered a 10-year data-center services agreement for the A202 facility on September 14. The 65.1 MW figure is critical IT load secured under that agreement. A202 is not operating today. Bitdeer expects energization in the third quarter of 2027.

A202 will sit beside Bitdeer’s 21.7 MW A201 facility, bringing the planned Johor campus total to 86.8 MW. In the expansion announcement, Bitdeer said the site is designed for liquid-cooled, rack-scale NVIDIA systems including GB300 NVL72 and Vera Rubin platforms.

The move adds another chapter to Bitdeer’s transition from pure Bitcoin mining toward a mixed mining and AI-infrastructure model. BitcoinVersus.tech recently tracked Bitdeer’s 79.9 EH/s self-mining hashrate, its Bitcoin production and sales, and its continuing investment in SEALMINER manufacturing.

Bitdeer now reports approximately 206.5 MW of secured AI-cloud data-center capacity across Malaysia, Norway and the United States. That represents about 59% of its target of up to 350 MW by the first quarter of 2028. A subsequent operating update repeated the 65.1 MW A202 agreement and showed the facility with a signed data-center contract and Q3 2027 readiness target.

The distinction between infrastructure and customer revenue matters. Bitdeer said no offtake commitments had been entered into for A201 or A202 as of the announcement. Its estimated active AI-cloud pipeline exceeding $7 billion is therefore not backlog, recognized revenue or a binding customer commitment. Industry reporting likewise describes A202 as a pre-leased future facility rather than currently energized capacity.

Bitdeer’s expansion mirrors a broader industry shift that BitcoinVersus.tech examined in Bitcoin Miners Shift Megawatts From ASICs to AI. The same power, cooling and network expertise developed for large mining fleets can increasingly be redirected toward high-density GPU infrastructure.

The hardware requirements are also converging around much higher rack density and liquid cooling. BitcoinVersus.tech has followed multi-megawatt AI cooling systems and next-generation AI power conversion as operators prepare for increasingly dense GPU deployments.

For Bitdeer, A202 is significant because it extends an existing campus instead of originating a new site. The company says it can reuse the Johor campus’s power, liquid-cooling and network infrastructure. Execution now depends on completing the facility, energizing it on schedule and converting commercial discussions into signed customer contracts.
