Data centre projects in Victoria

Updated

Melbourne is Australia's second-largest data centre market and one that is growing quickly. The city's connectivity, the availability of suitable industrial land in the inner and middle suburbs, and a deep pool of technical talent make it a natural location for expansion. Victoria's offshore wind development is creating longer-term interest from operators seeking large volumes of renewable energy, and several projects have begun structuring offtake arrangements with wind developers. The state's grid is under pressure in parts of the network, and large new loads require careful engagement with AEMO and AusNet on connection timing and capacity availability.
