Notes

Beetaloo Energy announced on 22 July 2026 that the NT Government had granted exclusivity over 185 hectares of contiguous land at Weddell, south-east of Darwin, for a proposed integrated power and data centre development. The announcement states the proposal is subject to completion of concept studies, securing consortium partners, and applicable government and regulatory approvals. Beetaloo says it does not propose to consume power from the NT grid and intends to overbuild generation capacity. The 2 GW and A$40 billion figures are from NT Government material attached to that ASX release, not a separately stated IT-load figure from Beetaloo Digital.
