A proposed hyperscale data centre project, known as “Project Ares,” is planned for a remote site in Australia’s Northern Territory. The project would cover about 19,150 hectares and is being pursued by Energy North at Murranji Station in the Barkly Region. The proposal is part of broader interest in the NT for data-centre development, with multiple proponents looking at opportunities in the territory. According to reports, up to 12 groups are assessing the NT for data-centre projects. The coverage describes “Project Ares” as a large-scale, hyperscale development, reflecting the scale associated with major data-centre operators and their infrastructure needs. The articles present the proposal as an emerging plan rather than an completed development, with attention focused on the location in the Barkly Region and the size of the planned site. Across the reporting, the key shared details are the project name, the proponent, the approximate land footprint, and the fact that several other potential data-centre proponents are also evaluating the NT.
