Malaysian property developer NCT Alliance Berhad has signed a term sheet for the proposed sale of a 100-acre land parcel in Sepang, Malaysia to a global data center operator to potentially build a data center of up to 800 MW capacity. Located within the 732-acre NCT Smart Industrial Park (NSIP), the proposed development will be undertaken by the data center operator, according to NCT’s exchange filing yesterday.

The term sheet was signed by NCT World Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NCT.

NSIP is Malaysia’s first Managed Industrial Park with IR4.0-ready facilities and GreenRE-certified ESG features. It has the advantage of being strategically located near major logistics hubs—KLIA, KLIA2, Port Klang, and the West Coast Expressway. Among its advanced features are AI-powered centralised labour quarters, cloud-based digital twin systems, and advanced ESG solutions such as solar-ready rooftops and flood mitigation systems.
