Anthropic signs an Australian data-center lease, Reuters reports
Anthropic signed its first Australian data-center lease, Reuters reported on September 16, citing two people familiar with the deal. One source described plans for a 2.16-gigawatt campus roughly 250 kilometers from Brisbane. The sources said the campus would start coming online in 2027.

That capacity is planned for the campus. It is not power already reaching Anthropic's computers.
The account relies on unnamed sources. The report does not establish completed construction, available power or how much of the planned campus Anthropic will occupy.
Planning approvals, power agreements and construction milestones would make the schedule more testable. A confirmed lease is one step; an operating facility is the result that matters for computing capacity.
