CANUS TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD

CANUSTechnologies.

An Australian owner-operator of AI factories. CANUS finds sites that already have power and fibre, deploys factory-built, liquid-cooled PortaDC pods there, 450 kW in PortaDC20 and 900 kW to 1.2 MW in PortaDC40, owns them through a project company and leases the capacity by the IT-kW to AI clouds that bring their own GPUs. The facts, in one place.

What CANUS is

What CANUSis.

01
Category
AI Factory as a Service. One customer type, one product, one invoice: rent per IT-kW per month, power at cost. We never touch the tenant's software.
02
Product
PortaDC™. A factory-built, liquid-cooled AI facility in two hulls, 450 kW to 1.2 MW IT: PortaDC20 (3 to 5 high-density racks) and PortaDC40 (8 to 12 standard, hybrid and storage racks). Built and tested in the factory, craned onto a pad. Three tiers of one engine: Pulse, Surge and Forge.
03
The lease
Firm to the tenant, flexible to the host. Three numbers: a firm floor the host cannot cut, an always-on cushion held at the boundary, and a contracted flexible band for Surge tenants only. Pulse tenants have a band of zero.
04
Systems
Solar-Sponge™ plans the cushion. FrontierGate™ executes it at the host boundary in milliseconds. LARUS AI™ records electricity in and heat out in one signed operating record.
05
The platform
Repeatable 450 kW building blocks. Every pod is metered for electricity in and heat out from factory test onward, and LARUS AI™ carries that operating record through every hour of service. Four pods fill the first LV bay at 1.8 MW, a site builds to ten pods and 4.5 MW IT (about 5.45 MW input) within the host's accepted import capacity, and sites run as one 22.5 MW+ fleet under one agreement and one record.
06
Sites
Solar-and-battery farms and industrial premises with an existing connection and fibre. Existing connections first, so no new grid works sit on the critical path.
07
Jurisdiction
CANUS Technologies Pty Ltd, Australia. ACN 698 333 158.
08
Team
Two co-founders: power origination and critical power infrastructure; hyperscale OT and infrastructure architecture. Engineering, contractor and compliance roster disclosed under NDA.

Australian compliance, governance & delivery standards

Built to the standard.Delivered to the record.

Every pod is engineered, metered, tested and documented to the same Australian standards a metro hall is held to.

01
Australian Electrical & Switchboard Compliance
Engineered and pre-fitted in Sydney to AS/NZS 3000 and AS/NZS 61439 standards, with type-tested 415 V switchboard assemblies and arc-fault protection.
02
Revenue-Grade Boundary Metering
Revenue-grade electrical and thermal metering across every pod boundary for transparent tenant billing and host settlement.
03
Environmental & Acoustic Standards
Closed-loop liquid cooling with no evaporative water after fill, engineered for regional Australian acoustic and bushfire site envelopes.
04
Factory Acceptance & Site Commissioning
Every pod passes witnessed factory acceptance testing before it ships and site acceptance testing before handover. Engineering packs and test documentation are provided to customers and host partners under NDA.

How we hold it

What we publish, and what wedon't.

01
Specifications
Pod capacities, cooling envelopes and economics on this site are indicative. Final figures are set by configuration and site and confirmed in writing before any order.
02
Confidentiality
How the boundary controller, the scheduler and the operating record work is confidential. What a pod delivers is metered and shown to the tenant, the host and the lender.
03
Filings
Three Australian provisional patent applications filed, two prepared, covering the boundary controller, the solar-synchronised scheduling and thermal buffer, and the operating record.

Questions
