Frequently Asked Questions

Hyperscale demand is surging, reflected in an 83% increase in forward order books reaching 544MW for the 2027 fiscal year. Providers are scaling rapidly to meet this need, with major players securing A$2.2bn to fund 250MW of new utilization in key markets like Sydney.

Recent breakthroughs in graphene deposition allow for film growth at temperatures below 450°C, bypassing traditional semiconductor thermal limits. This advancement directly resolves copper interconnect bottlenecks that previously constrained performance in high-end GPU and AI segments.

Capital markets remain highly receptive, with sector leaders raising more than A$1.75bn in combined equity and debt during the current period. This liquidity supports massive infrastructure scaling and the pursuit of new high-value segments, such as the US$66.5bn drone market.
