Aussie Data Centers Could Swallow 40 Million Litres Of Water Per Day, That's About 80,000 Households
Australia’s utility industry warns the country’s current water supply is not enough to accommodate the explosive growth of data centres and artificial intelligence (AI).
The Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA), the nation’s peak water body, says data centre developers are seeking about 5 to 40 million litres of water per day to cool down their facilities.
That’s the equivalent of 70,000 to 80,000 households or 16 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Data centres, which store information for governments to businesses, cycle water through their facilities to cool down servers and prevent overheating.
However, the development of AI, which has much higher computational power, storage, as well as electricity needs, is also driving up the base requirements of data centres.
In fact, the WSAA estimates that by 2030, data centres in Sydney alone are estimated to use 10.5 billion litres a year (1.9 percent of Sydney Water’s supply).
By 2035, this is expected to balloon to 90 billion litres a year, the equivalent of 15 to 20 percent of supply.
Sydney is arguably the tech capital of Australia with 90 data centres currently in the state of New South Wales (NSW), followed by 40 in Victoria. Future data centre developments could be much larger and energy-intensive, the report says.
Adam Lovell, executive director of WSAA, stressed the need for Australia to plan its water use carefully.
“Australia is well positioned to become a global data centre hub, and that needn’t be at the expense of our water resources,” Lovell said.

British Soccer Player Joey Barton Given Six Months Suspended Prison Sentence For ‘Grossly Offensive’ Posts on X
Sentencing Barton on Monday, Judge Andrew Menary KC said that “robust debate, satire, mockery and even crude language may fall within permissible free speech.”
”But when posts deliberately target individuals with vilifying comparisons to serial killers or false insinuations of paedophilia, designed to humiliate and distress, they forfeit their protection.”
Menary went on to describe Barton as “not a man of previous good character” and said he had carried out “a sustained campaign of online abuse that was not mere commentary but targeted, extreme and deliberately harmful.”
While Barton’s comments could definitely be condemned as extremely unkind, most were intended as jokes or crass humor.
During an FA Cup tie in which Ward and Aluko were commentating, Barton described them as the “Fred and Rose West of football commentary,” a reference to the notorious British serial killers.
In another post, he mocked Jeremy Vine as a “bike non
