Gorilla Moves GPU Demand To Batam

Gorilla Technology Group has signed a five-year AI compute contract valued at $2.5 billion, shifting part of the GPU infrastructure race to NeutraDC's Batam data center in Indonesia.

The company said it will deploy GPUs at the Batam site for an unnamed customer described as a high investment-grade global technology customer.

That customer gap matters commercially because the contract value is large, but the buyer's identity, workload type and end users are not public.

The first phase includes 1,000 B300 GPU servers and is expected to generate $1.3 billion in revenue over the five-year period.

Gorilla is targeting the first phase for September 2026, a second phase for December 2026 and the remaining capacity for the first half of 2027.

Financing Covers Most Project Costs

Gorilla said it has secured debt financing to cover approximately 70 percent of expected project costs.

That financing detail gives the contract more weight than a capacity announcement, but it still leaves the final project cost, lender names and drawdown terms undisclosed.

Chairman and chief executive Jay Chandan said the agreement moves Gorilla from secured capacity to contracted revenue.

He also said the company is building across South and East Asia, the Middle East, India and other high-demand AI compute markets because customers want deployable AI capacity.

The Batam site gives the deal a regional infrastructure angle.

Gorilla's May 2026 arrangement with NeutraDC gives it 5.5MW of capacity.

NeutraDC topped out one Batam data center in October 2025 at Kabil Industrial Estate, a tech park on Batam island across the strait from Singapore.

Capacity Plan Extends Beyond One Deal

NeutraDC's Batam facility is expected to provide more than 50MW of capacity, and the company has a second facility in the same park.

Gorilla has said its NeutraDC offtake is intended to rise to approximately 18MW by November of this year.

The Indonesia contract follows other Gorilla AI infrastructure moves.

Gorilla's earlier Freyr agreement was a three-year, $1.4 billion contract to develop a network of AI-powered data centers with the Singaporean cloud provider.

In April 2026, the company added an India agreement with Yotta covering more than 25,000 GPUs.

Gorilla is also planning a 200MW data center project in Thailand.

Those commitments show a company trying to assemble regional GPU supply before demand becomes easier to serve.

The signed Batam contract provides revenue visibility, while the undisclosed customer and pending 2026 and 2027 deployment phases leave execution risk at the center of the buildout.

Batam is positioned near Singapore while using Indonesian data-center capacity.

That geography can support regional compute demand, but Gorilla did not name power procurement terms, cooling design or a tenant schedule beyond its phased deployment targets.

Gorilla now has a named site, a server count, a financing percentage and deployment windows.

The missing buyer name and unreported workload profile still limit what can be inferred about demand quality, margin strength or the amount of usable AI capacity customers will receive.
