Centuria Locks A$165M GPU Debt, 72MW Power: Sovereign AI Pipeline Moves Two Years Closer

Centuria Capital Group (ASX: CNI) has lined up a three-part funding and infrastructure package to accelerate its sovereign AI “AI Factory 1” model, including A$165 million in GPU bridge financing from Macquarie Bank, a colocation partnership with CDC Data Centres, and 72MW of dedicated power. The deal advances Centuria-ResetData’s ability to convert customer demand into contracted revenue. A key differentiator is the operating structure: Centuria owns the buildings, while ResetData runs GPU compute inside them, with liquid immersion cooling enabling far higher rack densities. Using NVIDIA H200 GPUs, the approach targets 100kW-plus per rack and PUE of 1.02–1.10.
