Punggol Digital District by JTC

Punggol Digital District (PDD), developed by JTC, is a 50-hectare smart business park located in the northeast of Singapore. Master planned and developed by JTC under the Ministry of Trade and Industry, this development aims to redefine the future of sustainable and smart business parks and support key growth sectors in the Digital Economy such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI), fintech, robotics and smart living solutions.

Being the largest mixed-use Green Mark Platinum District in Singapore, PDD employs at-scale sustainable practices in energy efficiency, water efficiency, material and waste management, environmental planning, green buildings and transport. The district’s eight-storey Mass Engineered Timber (MET) building is the tallest timber-concrete hybrid office building in Southeast Asia and has achieved an outstanding embodied carbon performance.

PDD features a robust network of a Public Waste Collection System (PWCS), District Cooling System (DCS), and a smart energy grid, ensuring efficient waste management, sustainable cooling solutions, and intelligent energy distribution throughout the district. It also serves as a vital transport hub, facilitating seamless connectivity for residents, workers, and visitors. Powered by the Open Digital Platform (ODP), PDD will be the first district in Singapore with a smart city operating system. The ODP will enable solutions such as facial recognition, autonomous delivery robots, as well as smart facility management.

PDD integrates industry and academia with the broader community, featuring the new campus of the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) adjacent to JTC’s business park. This proximity is intended to foster collaboration between students and professionals, promoting innovative ideas that can be prototyped, tested, and adopted by businesses within PDD. PDD is expected to welcome tenants from 2025 and create 28000 jobs when fully developed.
