Australian data centre company GreenSquare has signed a long-term contract with Australian AI neocloud Sharon AI as the first customer at its SYD1 data centre campus in Western Sydney.

Sharon AI is expected to deploy approximately 8,200 NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs at the facility - described by GreenSquare as one of Australia's most significant announced NVIDIA HGX B300 deployments.

Initial operations are targeted for Q4 2026.

A feature of SYD1 Stage 1 is the adaptive reuse of an existing data centre building. GreenSquare said the approach accelerated delivery timelines and reduced embodied carbon compared with greenfield construction, while still supporting the high-density power and low water usage requirements of next-generation AI workloads.

"Securing this customer commitment is an important milestone for GreenSquare. It validates our platform and the demand for AI-ready infrastructure that can be delivered with speed, density and operational discipline," said Charles Penny, chief executive at GreenSquare.

"Our focus now is on execution - bringing next-generation capacity online safely, reliably and on schedule."

Beyond SYD1, GreenSquare said it is developing a portfolio of more than 1GW of capacity across Victoria and New South Wales.
