Bell Bay industrial precinct webinar
Watch our webinar about the Bell Bay industrial precinct project.
Firmus plans to build a new AI Factory project at Lot 1 East Tamar Highway, Long Reach — on the former Gunns Pulp Mill site at Bell Bay, Tasmania.
The site was previously prepared for large-scale industrial use, so the land, power connections, and road access are already in place.
We plan to construct two purpose-built AI data hall buildings, an office building, and a maintenance workshop, all within the existing cleared industrial platform. The buildings will be around 15 metres tall within the 20-metre limit permissible under the General industrial zone height restrictions.
Supporting infrastructure includes electrical substations (that Firmus will own), cooling systems, water storage tanks, car parking, and internal access roads. There will also be some associated ancillary assets, including a switching station, water connections and dams used for water runoff capture. All these ancillary assets are on existing disturbed or previously developed land.
