Building the Infrastructure the AI Economy Demands.

AI infrastructure demand is structural and accelerating—yet global supply is falling short. Few locations globally can meet hyperscale requirements at speed and at scale.

The Northern Territory is one of them:
  • land capacity measured in gigawatts, not hectares
  • globally competitive solar resources
  • low‑latency connectivity into Asia
  • long‑term geopolitical stability
Project Ares exists because these conditions rarely coincide—and because the market now requires them to. Project Ares is purpose-built for this moment.

By 2030, Asia–Pacific is expected to face a data centre capacity shortfall exceeding 10 GW.

Why we're different

Client-Demand Driven
Major Project Experts
Focused on Location
Flexible and Agile
Driven by Innovation
"Our mega scale renewable projects can genuinely turn the needle in assisting Australia to close the gap in its net zero emissions target. Unlike many other Australian projects struggling to reach FID, Energy North has some novel concepts that will ensure it can deliver renewable product sustainably and at a globally competitive price, this makes it truly exciting!"
Dickie Dique, Operations Director

PROVEN CAPABILITY IN REMOTE AUSTRALIA

Our team has delivered major energy infrastructure across Northern Australia - from large-scale renewable plants, LNG facilities to mining developments all with complex regulatory approvals.

We understand what project development in the Territory actually requires:
Years of stakeholder relationship-building, not a consultation tick-box exercise
Climate-resilient design for extreme weather conditions 
Realistic timelines accounting for wet seasons and stakeholder engagement
World class technical solutions protecting environmental, social and cultural values
Regulatory pathways we've successfully navigated before
Remote logistics management across vast distances
Our collective delivery experience spans:
Renewable energy  |  Mining projects  |  LNG operations  |  Indigenous partnerships  |  Federal & State approvals  |  Commercial structuring  |  Remote construction management
"We're not learning the fundamentals while developing our projects - we already understand what it takes to deliver mega projects in challenging environments."
Scott Criddle, CEO and Founder, Energy North

WHY EXPERIENCE MATTERS IN EMERGING SECTORS

Renewable energy is a globally emerging industry. Energy North brings proven major project delivery experience that's rare in this space:

Decades of remote Australian operations and stakeholder relationships.

State and Federal regulatory approvals expertise.

Commercial structuring of viable, bankable projects.

Realistic timelines grounded in practical delivery.

As a sustainable energy company we support the objectives of the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals, specifically SDGs 7, 9, 11, 13 and 17... Learn more

"We are currently on track for at least a 2.7C hotter world by the end of the century — and that’s only if countries meet all the pledges that they have made. Currently they are nowhere near doing that."

IEA’s Global Energy Review 2021

WHY THE NORTHERN TERRITORY

With strategic access to Northeast Asian markets, world-class solar resources, and vast land, the Northern Territory is ideal for cost- effective renewable energy production. Combined with existing and planned export infrastructure and decades of experience delivering major energy projects, the region provides an ideal environment for successful project development.

TARGET MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS

Since 2021, we’ve partnered with industrial customers worldwide to understand their decarbonisation timelines and align our development strategy. Today, we are actively engaged with hyperscalers and leading AI and Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), advancing project planning in parallel with market maturation to ensure readiness as commitments crystallise.

Our phased approach scales projects to confirmed demand while integrating stakeholder input throughout.
Energy North delivers the infrastructure the net-zero transition demands: sovereign renewable power for hyperscale AI compute, and green hydrogen derivatives for Asia-Pacific industrial decarbonisation.

Our primary target markets include:
"Our vision is to create a sustainable future for regional customers. We aim to achieve this by building a new industry for Australia and establishing a new net zero energy supply chain. To do this, we will engage in honest, open, and transparent conversations with our customers, delivering on our commitments and building their trust in us."
Reinhardt Matisons, Executive Vice President & Chief Marketing Officer
Industrial Decarbonisation
Supplying green ammonia to manufacturing, chemical production, and industrial processes, particularly in Asia – seeking to replace grey and blue feedstocks with low-emissions alternatives. 
AI-Ready Infrastructure
Supplying hyperscalers, AI and Cloud Service Providers with renewable firm power and a hyperscale platform built to lead Asia-Pacific’s next wave of AI-driven Data Centre growth. 
Maritime Fuel Transition
Providing green ammonia and e-methanol to support shipping companies and fuel suppliers working toward carbon-neutral operations, in line with International Maritime Organisation (IMO) targets and voluntary decarbonisation goals. 
Long-term Aviation Fuel
Positioning for future supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as production economics mature and global aviation decarbonisation policies strengthen, representing a longer-term growth opportunity.
