Uptime Institute Tier IV data centers in Australia

Facilities in Australia that publish Tier IV certification. Fault tolerant: the facility survives any single unplanned failure without impact on IT load. Rare, expensive, and usually reserved for financial and government systems.

12 of the 168 facilities we track in Australia publish Tier IV — 5 operators, 493 MW of published IT capacity, 12 operational. Cities: Melbourne (West Footscray), Melbourne (Tullamarine), Sydney (Artarmon), Sydney (Macquarie Park), Perth (CBD), Brisbane (Fortitude Valley), Adelaide (CBD), Darwin (CBD), Melbourne (Kilsyth South), Perth (Malaga), Brisbane, Kilsyth Victoria.

For context, wholesale colocation in Australia is benchmarked at $188 per kW per month (CBRE, Global Data Center Trends 2026 (17 June 2026)), and commercial electricity at $0.252 per kWh — certification rarely changes the rack rate, but it narrows the shortlist.
