Teco Electric and Machinery Co Ltd (東元電機), a leading Taiwan-based electric machinery supplier, has won mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) contracts in hyperscale data center engineering projects in Malaysia worth about NT$1.17 billion (US$39.78 million).
Teco on Friday said that two data center projects, one in Selangor and the other in Johor Bahru, marked the company’s inroads into the hyperscale data center business and have a combined capacity of 178 megawatts (MW).
The two contracts showed “not only Teco’s advanced technical capabilities in hyperscale data center MEP engineering, but also showcases its Intelligence Energy Business Group’s competence in project integration and execution on the international stage,” Teco chairman Morris Li (利明献) said.

As Malaysia is rapidly rising to become a major data center hub in Southeast Asia, the contracts are expected to support the company in broadening its footprint in the data center infrastructure market, Teco said.
The firm has been well-positioned in the MEP engineering sector and is recognized as an industry expert in fiber connectivity for hyperscale data centers, it added.
The project in Selangor’s Elmina Business Park includes server room installations and the deployment of hyperscale fiber-optic communications infrastructure, while the project in Johor Bahru’s Sedenak Tech Park involves providing fiber-optic solutions for hyperscale data centers, it said.
As major global tech giants are accelerating the deployment of hyperscale data centers in Southeast Asia, the company would continue to seek opportunities to win more contracts and further extend its reach in the data center business, Teco said.
The company has more than 10 years of experience in data center MEP engineering development and has delivered integrated solutions totaling more than 240MW in capacity, it added.
The company’s Intelligence Energy Business Group is executing a landmark data center MEP project in Singapore, which includes the installation of the world’s first 13,864-core hyperscale fiber-optic cable, Teco said.
Teco said its total installed capacity for data center projects across Taiwan and Southeast Asian countries has surpassed 700MV.
In addition to engineering solutions, the company also provides core MEP products essential for data center construction, such as modular solutions, high-efficiency motors, busways, generators, transformers and switchboards.
