About Data Centre Axis
About Data Centre Axis: how we find and match off-market sites and capacity.
Data Centre Axis combines a public-record site-finding and signals engine with direct introductions across both sides of a data centre transaction. We track planning, grid and land records across Australia and the UK, and work with landowners, developers, operators and compute buyers across Australia, the UK, the US and Canada to source sites and capacity, bring sites to market, and fill new builds and live halls.
- Find a site: Off-market and pre-market powered land and data centre sites, screened against your MW, land, grid and timing requirements.
- Find capacity: Data centre colocation, wholesale and AI-ready capacity sourced with operator proposals compared side by side.
- Sell or lease a site: Land, powered sites and data centres put in front of the right developers, operators and buyers.
- Find tenants and offtakers: Anchor tenants and pre-lets for new builds, plus customers for live halls.
Projects that need funding: we introduce investors and JV partners.
Who we work with
How we work with developers, compute buyers, landowners and operators.
- Developers, operators and hyperscalers: We work with developers: finding sites, JV partners, capital and customers. Power is the primary constraint and sites often trade before they are listed, so we give you an early look at power-ready land and data centres for sale and a shortlist matched to your MW, grid and timing requirements. See how we work with developers.
- AI, cloud, neocloud and enterprise compute buyers: Capacity with the right power, rack density and delivery date is scarce and hard to compare. We source colocation, wholesale and AI-ready capacity across Australia, the UK, the US and Canada, comparing operator proposals side by side and introducing you directly to the operators.
- Landowners and site owners: For industrial landowners, utilities and commercial property owners holding land near substations, brownfield plots or powered buildings, we give you a clear read on your land’s data centre potential using the same power-first grid screening we run for buyers. We bring the buyers, partners, investors and customers your site needs, and we partner with developers and pair you with the right one for your project.
- Operators with capacity to fill: New builds need an anchor customer and live halls need tenants. We introduce AI, cloud, neocloud and enterprise offtakers for pre-lets and available halls.
Where projects require specialist technical input, we also connect clients with grid engineers, power and planning specialists and M&E consultants.
How it works
How we track, screen, shortlist and introduce.
Three advantages sit behind our work: we find opportunities before they reach the market, we screen sites power-first on firm grid headroom rather than simple distance to a substation, and we know both sides of the deal so opportunities reach the right buyer off-market.
- Step 01. Track: Our signals engine tracks planning applications, grid capacity registers, land records and operator announcements across Australia and the UK.
- Step 02. Screen: We screen sites power-first on firm grid headroom, water, fibre routes and industrial zoning, excluding flood risk and protected areas.
- Step 03. Source and shortlist: We match off-market sites or available capacity against your MW, density, land, grid and timing requirements to deliver a shortlist you can act on.
- Step 04. Introduce: We introduce you directly to the right owner, developer, operator or customer so you can progress the transaction.
