The grid is full.
Compute isn’t.
Deepfield converts spare electrical capacity into a distributed compute network. Host a node. Earn recurring revenue from the asset you already own.
01 - THE PROBLEM
Australia is running out of places to put compute.
AI inference, cloud rendering, real-time gaming and edge workloads are scaling faster than the grid can carry them. New data centres now wait years for substation upgrades, transmission approvals and connection agreements.
In NSW and Victoria, hyperscale projects are routinely deferred or downsized due to network capacity alone.
The constraint isn't silicon. It's power delivery - and the queue to get it.

02 - DEEPFIELD
A compute network built on capacity that already exists.
Most commercial buildings in Australia - warehouses, office parks, industrial sheds, light manufacturing, cold storage - have significant electrical headroom sitting unused. Switchboards sized for peak load. Three-phase service running at a fraction of its rating. Demand profiles that go quiet after 6pm and on weekends.
Deepfield installs an edge node into that headroom. Each node is a self-contained, liquid-cooled compute module, monitored and orchestrated in real time. We use the property's existing connection. We pay the host. We sell the compute.
02 / Always-on, grid-aware
Real-time circuit monitoring keeps the node within safe operating limits. It throttles or pauses when the site needs the power. It runs when the site doesn't.
01 / Existing connection
No new substation. No interconnection queue. We deploy inside the capacity your switchboard is already rated for.
03 / Revenue from infrastructure you already own
You host. We operate. You get a monthly payment indexed to node uptime - turning a passive electrical asset into recurring income.
03 - HOW IT WORKS
Four steps from switchboard to compute revenue.
01.
Site assessment
We pull interval data from your meter and switchboard. We model real headroom - not nameplate. Most viable sites have 30–150 kW of usable capacity.
02.
Install
A Deepfield node is installed alongside your existing main switchboard, typically in under a day. Liquid-cooled. Sealed. No ongoing footprint inside tenanted areas.
03.
Orchestration
The node joins the Deepfield network. Workloads are dispatched centrally based on latency, customer requirements and live site conditions.
04.
Revenue
We pay you monthly. Hosting payments are structured as either a fixed lease or a revenue share - your choice at signing.
04 - IDEAL SITES
Industrial & logistics
warehouses, distribution centres, cold storage
If you have three-phase power and a roof over it, we should talk:
Light manufacturing
fabrication, food production, packaging
Data-adjacent sites
fibre-served properties, regional exchanges
Commercial office parks
particularly outside CBDs with on-site infrastructure
Agricultural & rural commercial
packing sheds, processing plants, sites with solar
Childcare, gyms, large retail
predictable daytime load with overnight headroom
"We had 120 kW of unused capacity sitting in our main switchboard. Deepfield turned it into a five-figure annual line item — without changing anything about our operation.”
— Jack Ledgerwood, Commercial Office, NSW
05 - HOST ECONOMICS
Recurring revenue. Zero capex. No operational burden.
Predictable monthly income
A fixed rate or revenue share, paid monthly. Indexed to node availability - passive income for unused energy.
Zero capital
outlay
Deepfield funds the node, the install, the cooling, the monitoring. You provide the space and the connection.
Full operational isolation
The node runs on its own circuit, behind its own protection. Your operation always takes priority.
Optional energy upgrades
On qualifying sites, we'll co-fund battery storage and rooftop solar that you keep at end of lease.
*Indicative annual host payments: ~$4,500 per month depending on node size, site conditions and connection capacity. We'll model your specific site after a 15-minute call.
06 - FOR COMPUTE BUYERS
A new tier of Australian compute, deployed at the speed of installs
- not substations.
Deepfield delivers geographically distributed GPU and CPU capacity across Australia, orchestrated as a single network. We're built for workloads where centralised data centres are slow, full, or too far from the user.
Best suited for:
AI inference, including RAG and agentic workloads
Cloud gaming and interactive streaming
Cloud rendering and media transcoding
Edge analytics for industrial and retail telemetry
Sovereign and locality-sensitive workloads (data stays onshore, by state if required)
07 — THE NETWORK
Built for scale.
Operated like infrastructure.
Every node is monitored continuously for power, thermal and workload health. The Deepfield orchestration layer routes jobs across the fleet in real time - failing over gracefully when a node throttles, pauses for a grid event, or comes offline for maintenance. Security is enterprise-grade: encrypted communications, hardware-rooted identity, tamper-evident enclosures, workload isolation.
Sovereign by design
All compute runs onshore. Customer data never leaves Australia unless explicitly contracted.
Grid-aware operation
Nodes participate in demand response where available. We're allies of the network operator, not a load on it.
Resilient by architecture
A fault at one site is a routing decision, not an outage. There is no single point of failure.
08 - ROADMAP
Built in phases. Operated like infrastructure from day one.

WHY NOW
AEMO is actively pursuing distributed energy resources.
Australian enterprises are under sovereign data pressure. Hyperscaler grid connection queues now stretch beyond 2030. Distributed compute hosted in commercial properties is the only model that can deploy on a 2026–2027 horizon.
09 - QUESTIONS
-
No. The node operates on a dedicated circuit with its own protection. Real-time monitoring ensures your site's load always takes priority - if your demand rises, our node throttles first.
-
A standard 8-GPU node will earn each partner ~$4,500 per month.
-
Deepfield. The node has its own circuit and metering - we also reconcile usage monthly. Your bill is unaffected.
-
Most installs are completed in a single day by a licensed electrical contractor. We handle permitting, certification and any switchboard work. Disruption to your operation is typically zero.
-
A standard node footprint is roughly the size of a large filing cabinet. Larger commercial configurations scale modularly.
-
6 months (enough time to pay back the installation costs) - from there, no lock in contracts and a standard 90-day cancellation policy.
-
The node operates on a fully isolated network connection. It has no access to your IT environment. Workload data is encrypted end-to-end and never touches your systems
-
The hosting agreement transfers with the operator. Most buyers see it as a positive - an income-producing asset attached to the site.
-
Yes. All installations are completed by licensed electricians, comply with AS/NZS 3000, and are certified before commissioning. We also carry full public liability and professional indemnity cover.
-
Deepfield is decentralised AI compute infrastructure (like a divided data centre).
We help businesses utilise spare energy capacity and share the revenue of the compute power we generate.
