Proud to have partnered with AusNet and industry leaders on Australia’s transmission connected data centre - a milestone that sets a new benchmark for powering large-scale digital infrastructure.
In October 2024, AusNet successfully energised Australia’s first transmission-level connected data centre – a landmark moment for the industry and a proud achievement for our team. Located in Melbourne’s west, the data centre was directly connected to our 220kV terminal station via two underground HV cables, supported by a newly developed onsite substation. This pioneering project set a new benchmark for powering large-scale data centres with enhanced reliability, scalability, and efficiency – from initial load through to ultimate capacity using the one infrastructure footprint. A year later, the impact of this milestone continues to resonate. As data centres continue to scale up and demand for high-capacity, resilient energy infrastructure accelerates, the choice of the right partners is critical to meet our customer power needs and we’re very proud to have worked closely with Downer Energy & Utilities, Wilson Transformer Company, Jacobs, Taihan Cable & Solution and Daly's Constructions (Australia) Pty Ltd to lead the way in working on the innovative connection solution. 🎥 watch the video to learn more Thank you to our customers for believing in our service and product, and our suppliers for your expertise, commitment, and collaboration. Together, we’re powering the future of Australia’s energy infrastructure.🔌⚡️ #EnergyTransition #DataCentres #Transmission #Collaboration #Innovation #AusNet #Downer #Dalys #Jacobs #Taihan #Melbourne #Infrastructure #WeBringTheEnergy
