Northern Data Group platform, Peak Mining, announces purchase of a second 300MW data center location in Corpus Christi, Texas
The new site enables Peak Mining to accelerate its expansion plans to become one of the largest bitcoin miners globally. The company will be deploying indoor, custom-designed, fully-integrated and liquid-cooled HPC data center systems to drastically improve deployment time and infrastructure cost, bringing Peak Mining to a leading position in the industry and preparing it for the future of HPC compute.
Saxet Infrastructure Group ("Saxet") will act as construction manager for the design, build and energization of the substation. The Saxet team brings a strong track record of project management and deep expertise with the construction of HPC infrastructure.
Niek Beudeker, Managing Director of Northern Data Group Platform, Peak Mining, commented:
"The purchase of this second large site will significantly shorten our time to hashing and kick off one of the fastest mining expansions globally. We now have almost 700MW of sites in active development, that when fully fitted with our latest-generation hardware, could potentially provide up to 40EH of hash rate."
Aroosh Thillainathan, Northern Data Group's Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"This second data center location demonstrates how Northern Data Group is able to harness the power and opportunity of HPC. Sustainability has been at the core of this further expansion into the US and thanks to the center's ERCOT approved status, we will be able to scale our operations at speed, as the demand for digital assets continues to grow."
Steven Quisenberry, Chief Executive Officer at Saxet Infrastructure Group, commented:
We are excited to support Northern Data Group's expansion in the ERCOT market and specifically to welcome them to the Corpus Christi area. The combination of base load industrial demand and significant renewable resources creates a unique opportunity for their portfolio. This is a terrific example of one of the largest, most advanced liquid cooled data centers in North America and we are proud to partner with Northern Data Group to bring their data center online.
Northern Data Group was advised on the transaction by Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Legal Counsel) and BitOoda Technologies LLC.
