Hong Kong, China and Singapore, measure by measure. EU-wide rules are listed once. National and regional or local rules are shown side by side, each with its status, effective date and source.

Up to 7 countries at a time. A zero means no measure was found in this compilation, not that none exists.
None of the selected countries is covered by an EU-wide measure in this compilation.
Access to dedicated DC land and streamlined change-of-use with waived land-premium/waiver fees for qualifying industrial-building conversions.
Eases siting: dedicated data-centre land and fee-waived conversion of eligible industrial buildings lower the cost and time of securing a site.
New large DCs must meet PUE<=1.25 (national hubs) / <=1.3 elsewhere, plus increasing renewable-energy use (target ~80% green-power utilisation for hub DCs by the early 2030s).
Typical effect of this kind of measure: Sets efficiency rules a data center must meet, e.g. a PUE ceiling or mandatory KPI reporting. Can force cooling/design changes and rule out inefficient builds.
Directs DC siting to designated clusters; efficiency (PUE) and renewable conditions apply; siting/fiscal incentives available within hubs.
Typical effect of this kind of measure: Shapes demand and siting (data localization, cloud-first, digital plans). Indirect: it drives where capacity is needed rather than regulating the facility itself.
New capacity awarded to best-in-class efficient/green DCs; tropical-climate PUE target of <=1.3 and high energy efficiency standards.
New capacity is allocated competitively to the most efficient and greenest bids (tropical PUE target ≤1.3); a new site needs an allocation before it can be built.
Framework/metrics (incl. PUE) for green DC certification and energy-management systems.
Typical effect of this kind of measure: Sets efficiency rules a data center must meet, e.g. a PUE ceiling or mandatory KPI reporting. Can force cooling/design changes and rule out inefficient builds.
