Tasmania’s Secret AI Data Centre Push | Adelaide News
About this episode
Tasmania’s energy future is being reshaped by six secret AI data centre proposals, each potentially gobbling up hundreds of megawatts—raising alarms from the Greens demanding transparency while the government defends confidentiality as commercially sensitive. Two are in feasibility, one could be the state’s largest, while four remain in concept. These come alongside Firmus Technologies’ existing plans, already poised to make them Tasmania’s biggest power consumer. With local councils like Latrobe struggling to adapt planning rules, tensions mount over whether the state is selling its resources without public consent—or unlocking economic opportunity.
