Source-listed profile · 50% core-field coverage

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.

Status Source checked
Works commenced on 17 February 2025 (CDC); Infratil reported LV1 under construction in September 2025 and, in September 2026, the first building expected to become operational in late FY27.Checked 2026-11-03 · Infratil Limited ↗ · Infratil Limited ↗ · CDC Data Centres ↗
Identity Not found in checked sources
The site is in Laverton North; a Wyndham City Council register entry for a data centre at 20-38 Leakes Road (WYP14790/24) does not name the applicant, so no street address is published.Checked 2026-11-03 · CDC Data Centres ↗ · Wyndham City Council via Planning Alerts ↗

Capacity & development

Power basis not established

Directory reports Under Construction. No comparable IT capacity or commissioning date has been accepted from this listing.

Government certification

Certification not verified

What certification covers →

Scope and context

  • Added from a public Data Center Map listing. Identity and location remain directory-reported until corroborated against operator or planning evidence.
  • The directory links this entry to CDC Laverton Campus. It shares a grouped site boundary with its reported parent; a hosted provider or child building is not counted as another independent site.

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.

CDC Australian operating ICT capacity: approximately 470 MW

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.
