SUMMARY

Data centres trade as real estate but do not behave like it: value is set by secured, energised power, execution capability and regulation, not by location or floor space.
Valuation requires triangulation across various methodologies. The metrics that matter are contracted versus energised MW, WALE by contract type, PUE trajectory and ESG compliance against regulatory thresholds.
Six SGX-listed vehicles offer differentiated exposure: three pure-plays (Keppel DC REIT, Digital Core REIT, NTT DC REIT) and three diversified names (CapitaLand Ascendas REIT, Mapletree Industrial Trust, CapitaLand India Trust).
