Nvidia to Back Up to 2-Gigawatt AI Buildout Across Australia by 2027

Nvidia will support up to 2 gigawatts of AI infrastructure capacity in Australia by 2027 under a partnership with the country's data centre ecosystem.

Nvidia is set to expand its artificial intelligence infrastructure capacity through a partnership with Australia's data centre ecosystem, with plans to support up to 2 gigawatts of AI buildout in the country by 2027.

The company outlined the arrangement on September 9, positioning the move as an extension of its global efforts to scale the computing capacity that underpins AI workloads.

The 2-gigawatt figure refers to the power capacity the planned infrastructure is expected to draw, a measure that has become a key benchmark for the scale of AI data centre projects. The buildout is targeted for completion by 2027.

The partnership brings Nvidia together with Australia's data centre operators and related players, though the announcement did not specify individual partners, sites, or investment amounts.

Demand for AI computing has surged in recent years, prompting chipmakers and data centre operators to pursue larger and more power-intensive facilities. Australia's data centre market has been drawing interest as a regional hub for cloud and AI services.

Nvidia did not disclose further details of the collaboration in the announcement.
