- Notes
- Third and largest addition to the Macquarie Park Data Centre Campus in Sydney’s north zone; Macquarie states it will bring total campus IT load to 65 MW, with all end-state power secured. 11,700 m² technical space and a 100% uptime guarantee are published on the facility page. Macquarie describes the facility as Tier III designed and certified, purpose-built for AI and cloud with air, liquid and hybrid cooling. Macquarie’s 13 June 2024 announcement appointed FDC Construction as the main build contractor. FDC’s own page records the topping out of structural works (with the NSW Treasurer). The official IC3 Super West facility page, and the Macquarie Technology Group data-centres page, still described the facility as currently under construction and “Coming Soon” when checked on 13 November 2026 (Australia/Sydney), with ready-for-service stated as 2026 / September 2026. FY26 results (26 August 2026) said construction of the core and shell was complete, mechanical and electrical fit-out was progressing on time and on budget, and Phase 1 (6 MW) was expected to be completed by September 2026. FDC topped out structure (Dec 2025); FDC has delivered for Macquarie since IC2 (~10 yrs)
