Compute, workloads & commercial commitments

Facility specificationAustraliaReported observation

Marsden Park has a dated planning approval.

The NSW Planning Portal records SSD-70889211 as approved on 27 November 2025. The project description comprises six four-storey data centre buildings and associated infrastructure.

Approved project power consumption

Planning project description
Evidence scope
Named facility · CDC
Evidence as-of date
2025-11-27

How to read this: The substation rating and project power consumption are different electrical boundaries and cannot be added. Planning consent is separate from commissioning; CDC’s location page independently describes early construction. Neither number is an accepted commissioned IT-power contribution.

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
30 June 2026
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.
