SHARON, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure provider, announces today that it has installed 2 additional substation transformers at its 100 MW Midland, PA site. These transformers will power the second 50MW of capacity at the facility, capable of holding up to 29,400 miners and producing up to 3.5 exahashes per second (EH/s) when fully deployed1.
The site is expected to be fully operational in early Q2, 2023 with these transformers being the final piece of infrastructure required, connecting the previously built out poles and wires and is expected to double the Mawson Self-mining and hosting operations, once our modular data centers and ASIC miners are fully deployed.
The completion of the site will allow Mawson to increase its participation in its market-leading Energy Markets Program, meaning the entire 100 MW of power will be available for participation in the curtailment and demand response programs. Mawson earned more than $4 million in revenue in the month of December through their current programs, operating at 50 MW.
The site is one of two large scale Bitcoin Mining operations Mawson controls in the area. The other is the proposed 120 MW facility in Sharon, PA, scheduled to come online incrementally through 2023/24 commencing in Q2, 2023 starting with the recently announced 12MW of self-mining operations. .
Liam Wilson, COO, commented, “We are delighted to take delivery of these transformers which will help push forward Mawson’s growth through 2023. We are excited to see this fantastic site come to life and are equally as excited about the results we expect to see through our Bitcoin self-mining, hosting and Energy Markets Program revenue streams. The financial flexibility of Mawson’s diversified revenue streams is what makes these sites so attractive. This site also operates on carbon-free power, which is a great help towards meeting our ESG targets. Mawson is looking forward to a strong start to our 2023 with rapidly expanding our operations.”
