Core-field coverage counts eight basic fields available in the Atlas. It is not an accuracy score or a measure of technical specification completeness. Individual evidence checks appear below.

Evidence by field

Evidence status applies to the named field and cited sources. “Not found” means those sources do not establish the fact; it does not establish absence.

Identity Source checked: The operator identifies this named campus on its own location page.Checked 2026-09-11 · CDC ↗
Capacity Source checked: Hume One, Hume Two and Fyshwick are operating; Beard is under construction. The reported 21, 51, 45 and 39 MW do not have an explicit IT power definition on this page.Checked 2026-09-11 · CDC ↗
Hardware Not found in checked sources: No site-level GPU model and quantity inventory is published in the location page checked.Checked 2026-09-11 · CDC ↗
Workloads Not found in checked sources: The checked location page does not allocate installed power or hardware between LLM training, inference and other workloads.Checked 2026-09-11 · CDC ↗
Contracts Not found in checked sources: No named, site-allocated customer contract or leased-power quantity is disclosed on the location page checked.Checked 2026-09-11 · CDC ↗

Government certification

Certification not verified

No verified certification scope has been assigned to this record. Unknown does not mean uncertified.

Scope and context

Map location, when supplied, represents the city rather than a verified facility coordinate.
Technical details reported by Data Center Map are shown separately from the Atlas's primary-source observations.
Campus capacity is recorded once. Named building records retain their own identity and certification scope.

Compute, workloads & commercial commitments

Site-specific workloads, GPU inventory and customer contracts are not established by the cited evidence. Electrical capacity and AI-ready specifications alone do not establish these details.

Related operator-wide evidence

These disclosures describe the operator’s portfolio. They are not assigned to this facility or included in its power totals.

Facility specificationANZAnnouncement

CDC reports a 3.9 GW leasable ANZ pipeline

September 2026 investor update reports 3.9 GW leasable pipeline as at 30 June 2026. Earlier 1.7 GW leasable capacity corresponded to a 2.5 GW built capacity pipeline. The definitions differ and cannot be summed.

Total leasable pipeline: 3,900 MW leasable

Evidence scope: Operator portfolio · CDC
Evidence as-of date: 2026-06-30

How to read this: Includes existing operating and future capacity across Australia and New Zealand. It is not additional pipeline or site-allocated IT capacity and is not additive to facility totals.

Facility specificationAustraliaOperating deployment

CDC Australian operating ICT capacity: approximately 470 MW

CDC reports operating primary ICT capacity of approximately 120 MW in the ACT, 220 MW in NSW and 130 MW in Victoria at 30 June 2026. The regional figures are rounded to the nearest 10 MW.

Operating primary ICT capacity: ≈ 470 MW IT

Evidence scope: Operator portfolio · CDC
Evidence as-of date: 2026-06-30

How to read this: The portfolio is included once in the operating reconciliation. Brooklyn accounts for the Victorian 130 MW; other named-site allocations remain incomplete. Primary ICT excludes the redundancy and losses in CDC’s earlier built-capacity measure. It is available capacity, not actual consumption.
