Data centre projects in Queensland

Updated

Queensland is attracting growing interest as a data centre location, particularly from operators looking for capacity outside of Sydney at lower land and power costs. Brisbane and the surrounding region offer a workable combination of connectivity, climate and infrastructure, and the state's renewable energy ambitions are making green power contracting more accessible. The market is less mature than New South Wales or Victoria, but hyperscaler demand and the broader growth in AI and cloud infrastructure mean the Queensland pipeline is expanding more quickly than it was even two or three years ago.
