AirTrunk, an Australia-based hyperscale data centre specialist, has signed an exclusivity agreement with European Energy Australia for a 260 MW solar farm and a battery of more than 800 MWh. The agreement also covers a wind farm of up to 350 MW, and each plant is planned within the Hunter-Central Coast Renewable Energy Zone of New South Wales, Australia. Both companies are discussing a long-term power purchase agreement, under which the output would support the energy requirements of AirTrunk in the state. Those requirements include the data centre campus that AirTrunk has proposed on the former Kurri Kurri smelter site at Loxford. The solar farm and the battery are expected to begin operating in 2030, and the wind farm is expected to follow in 2032. European Energy Australia has said that it plans to connect the plants to the upgraded 132 kV network of Ausgrid, subject to final arrangements and approvals.
