SuperX signs cooperation agreements with three Japanese technology companies to promote AI data center pilot projects

On the evening of February 4th, NASDAQ-listed company SuperX (NASDAQ: SUPX), through its Japanese subsidiary, announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with three domestic Japanese technology companies: Digital Dynamic Inc., eole Inc., and Woodman Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “DD,” “eole,” and “Woodman” respectively). This MOU builds upon previous cooperation among the parties and aims to establish a comprehensive framework for jointly developing large-scale AI data centers (AIDC) across Japan.

The four parties will establish a joint working group to pilot the AIDC project in Mie Prefecture, Japan. This pilot is intended as a starting point, with an initial facility capacity of up to 4MW, depending on feasibility assessments, site conditions, regulatory approvals, and the signing of final agreements. The total capacity is expected to expand to 300MW in the future.

Just a few days earlier, on January 30th, SuperX’s first global supply center in Tsu City, Mie Prefecture, Japan, officially commenced operations. The center aims to leverage Japan’s precision manufacturing techniques to produce high-performance AI servers for global clients, with an annual designed capacity of 20,000 units. At that time, SuperX Chairman and CEO Huang Chenhong described it as a “key step in locking in the engineering precision and quality assurance needed for global competition.”

The collaboration with DD, eole, and Woodman is specifically aimed at addressing bottlenecks in AI infrastructure. The signed MOU is based on the initial MOU signed on January 30th in Osaka, Japan, and aims to establish a comprehensive framework for jointly developing large-scale AI data centers across Japan.

According to reports, SuperX’s modular AI factory solutions can transform complex AIDC construction into a standardized “building block” process, significantly shortening construction cycles and reducing deployment difficulty. As detailed in SuperX’s previous technical disclosures, their modular approach involves deep integration and testing of core units such as compute servers, high-density liquid cooling systems, and efficient 800V DC power supplies (800VDC) within factories. Once delivered to the site, the main tasks are rapid assembly and connection.

For the Mie Prefecture pilot project, the advantages of this approach will be specifically demonstrated. According to the cooperation memorandum, the parties plan to collaborate on system integration of key AI infrastructure, including advanced power systems and liquid cooling solutions critical for continuous AI workloads. The pilot project will serve as an ideal showcase for SuperX’s “computing power + cooling + power supply” integrated technology architecture.

Additionally, the cooperation framework considers the future integration of renewable energy components such as solar, wind, and energy storage systems. This not only responds to the global pursuit of green and low-carbon computing power but also aligns with Woodman’s expertise in optimizing the utilization of surplus electricity resources.

Public disclosures indicate that the three Japanese partner companies selected by SuperX possess extensive experience and strong capabilities in the construction, operation, and service of AI data centers in Japan, enabling effective complementary advantages and business synergy to help expand the domestic market.

Among them, DD is one of Japan’s fastest-growing AI infrastructure operators, with deployment of inference GPUs based on NVIDIA rapidly expanding. Eole is a listed Japanese company whose influence in the domestic GPU server market is increasing, providing important investment support and business expansion resources for the AIDC project. Woodman is a Japanese technology firm dedicated to transforming unused resources such as surplus electricity and computing capacity into new value, thereby eliminating social waste.

To facilitate implementation, the parties will establish a joint working group to define the technical architecture, governance, and short-term milestones. SuperX will lead the development of modular system architecture and power system integration.
