印尼AI数据中心遭水资源审查与抗议
印尼西爪哇省已暂停BDx Data Centers规划的640兆瓦AI园区（AI Campus 2／CGK4）建设，当局正审查其用水需求，而环境影响评估(AMDAL)与建筑许可(PBG)尚未发放。据Institute for Essential Services Reform估计，该六栋建筑园区满负荷运行可能需水约每秒384升（日均约3.3万立方米），但一次环境评估讨论会上提及的运行需求仅为每秒27升，两组数字对应的供水安排或建设阶段尚未厘清。与此同时，巴淡岛数百名居民10月5日在Nongsa Digital Park门外抗议，称家中已数月无水可用；BP Batam否认将居民用水转给数据中心，将其归因于长期干旱，并已要求数据中心企业改用海水淡化制取淡水。BDx表示仍以2027年初作为首个签约阶段的目标，但能否实现取决于审批结果。
水资源与许可争议正在成为东南亚AI数据中心扩张的关键约束，可能推迟区域算力上线时间。

A planned 640-megawatt AI data center in Indonesia remains on hold as authorities scrutinize its water requirements and outstanding permits.
West Java officials are reviewing water requirements for BDx Data Centers’ proposed AI campus near Jatiluhur Reservoir, where construction was suspended in September over incomplete environmental and building approvals. Independent specialists have been consulted to examine the project’s potential impact on local water resources.
The review comes as Indonesia attracts investment in domestic AI computing capacity. Permitting delays could affect when that infrastructure becomes available to enterprises planning regional deployments.
