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.
- Hardware Not found in checked sources
- No installed site-specific model/quantity verified. GB300 Tasmania programme and Melbourne contracts cannot be allocated by inference.Checked 2026-09-11 · Firmus ↗ · Firmus ↗
- Contracts Not found in checked sources
- No public compute customer contract tied to this exact physical site found in the reviewed sources. Gunvor is an energy agreement and OpenAI is Malaysia-only.Checked 2026-09-11 · Firmus ↗ · Firmus ↗ · Firmus ↗

Capacity & development
Power for servers, GPUs, storage & networking (IT power)
Approximate ultimate critical IT load, subject to planning approval. Undated full-build-out plan; no commissioning year or construction assertion. Power connection MW is not added.
Proposed or approved design capacity. Included in the planning inventory, not a dated delivery forecast or a claim of committed supply.
Government certification
Certification not verified
No verified certification scope has been assigned to this record. Unknown does not mean uncertified.
What certification covers →Scope and context
- Approximate ultimate critical IT load, subject to planning approval. Undated full-build-out plan; no commissioning year or construction assertion. Power connection MW is not added.
- Technical details reported by Data Center Map are shown separately from the Atlas's primary-source observations.
- Directory reconciliation: Public directory gives only the Tailem Bend area off the Princes Highway; it supplies no exact street address or precise location verification.
- Directory reconciliation: The public publisher withholds exact location. This match uses named identity only and does not use hidden embedded coordinates or addresses.
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.
South Australia energy agreement covers 600 MW of load
Firmus reports a 12-year electricity supply agreement signed in June 2026 for its first South Australian AI factories and names Gunvor Group.
