NSW register changes

The NSW Major Projects register shows each data centre application's current stage, not how it got there. We check it every day, capture each project page every week and date each change when we first see it.

Captures began 8 October 2026; the register was last checked on 2 November 2026. Dates are Sydney dates; the portal may have changed a little earlier. Changes from the last 30 days are shown here; the full dated history is in the pipeline report.

The register covers State significant development only. Data centres approved by councils aren't on it, so these counts are a floor. How long approvals take.
