BNDES approves R$10.18 million financing for ALGcom to develop modular data centers
Type: Financing · Technology: Data Center · Country: Brazil · Announced: 2026-07-08
The Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES) approved R$10.18 million in financing for ALGcom to develop and industrialize a new generation of national modular data centers in Caxias do Sul (RS), Brazil. The funding, provided by the Fundo para o Desenvolvimento Tecnológico das Telecomunicações (Funttel), will support the production of high-performance, energy-efficient data centers with integrated digital solutions. This modular architecture aims to reduce deployment time by up to 50% and decrease reliance on foreign suppliers, facilitating installation in remote areas. The project, expected to conclude in 2028, also includes developing precision climate control systems and smart power distribution units (PDUs) with over 99.5% electrical efficiency, managed by an IoT platform for real-time operational data analysis. ALGcom anticipates creating approximately 50 direct and 30 indirect jobs upon completion, with technical support from local universities and science and technology institutions.
