アジア太平洋のデータセンター電力容量は2025年の16GWから2030年に70GWへ4.4倍増し、それに伴うCO2排出は46Mtpaから177Mtpaへ3.8倍増と推計。インド、日本、豪州などは石炭火力依存が強く、2030年には25地点でDC由来CO2が1Mtpaを超える。うち16地点は近隣に100年以上の貯留可能な帯水層があり、DC由来CO2の76%をCCSで削減可能。日本・韓国・シンガポールはエネルギー自給率が低く、輸入途絶リスクへの政策対応が必要。

APAC data center power capacity will grow 4.4x from 16 GW in 2025 to 70 GW in 2030, raising DC-emitted CO2 from 46 to 177 Mtpa. India, Japan, Australia and others will rely heavily on coal, while Singapore, Korea and New Zealand rely on gas. By 2030, 25 locations exceed 1 Mtpa DC CO2; 16 have nearby saline aquifers storing >100 years of emissions, covering 76% of total. Japan, Korea and Singapore face low energy self-sufficiency and import disruption risks.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本はデータセンター電力容量が2030年に国内系統容量の10%超となる見込みで、石炭火力依存と低いエネルギー自給率が課題。CCS適地の有無は、日本のGX政策におけるCCS推進とデータセンター立地戦略に直結する。
In the global GX context
This study provides a quantitative basis for integrating CCS into data center decarbonization strategies in APAC, where rapid digital growth collides with coal-heavy grids. It highlights the need for grid upgrades and energy security policies, relevant to global discussions on transition finance and climate disclosure for the tech sector.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract Analysis of data in the public domain shows that the power capacity of Asia-Pacific (APAC) data centers (DCs) will grow from 16 GW in 2025 to 70 GW in 2030, a 4.4-fold increase. Between 2025 and 2030, APAC economies with the highest growth rate in DC power capacity will be India, Japan, Australia, China, and South Korea. Using the announced power source of future DCs and the energy mix of APAC’s national grids, this study estimates that the CO2 emitted by fossil fuel power plants supplying electricity to DCs (DC-emitted CO2) will grow from 46 Mtpa in 2025 to 177 Mtpa in 2030, a 3.8-fold increase. By 2030, six APAC economies will have DC power capacity exceeding 10% of their national grid capacity. They will be Bhutan, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Japan. These economies need to upgrade their national grid to support their DC power growth. The relatively small share of nuclear power and non-hydro renewable energies in national electricity generation in APAC economies will mean that the majority of DCs in APAC will be powered by fossil fuel power plants. Analysis shows that APAC economies of India, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, China, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam will rely heavily on coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) to power their DCs, whereas Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, and New Zealand will rely heavily on natural gas-fired power plants (GFPPs). By 2030, there will be 25 APAC locations with DC-emitted CO2 exceeding 1 Mtpa. A CO2 source-sink mapping exercise shows that 16 of these locations have nearby saline aquifers that can permanently store more than 100 years of DC-emitted CO2, corresponding to 76% of total DC-emitted CO2. With further characterization of APAC saline aquifers, more DC-emitted CO2 may be mitigated by carbon capture and storage (CCS). Furthermore, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore suffer from low energy self-sufficiency (≤20%), and their DCs are vulnerable to disruption of energy imports. Policies to mitigate this need to be in place.
