Greenidge Planning Development of 60 MW Data
Center on its South Carolina Property
Builds on Recent Addition of 40 MW of
Low-Cost Power in Mississippi and North Dakota
Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: GREE) (“Greenidge”
or the "Company"), a vertically integrated cryptocurrency
datacenter and power generation company, today announced that it
continues to expand its U.S. footprint capacity and has secured
access to 60 MW of low-cost power in South Carolina. This follows
the Company’s recently announced acquisition of 32.5 MW of mining
capacity in Mississippi and 7.5 MW of mining capacity in North
Dakota, bringing the total new power capacity added this past month
to approximately 100 MW.
Greenidge’s expansion in South Carolina flows from a new
agreement for anticipated electric services of a peak electrical
load of 60 MW to be developed on 20 acres of a 150-acre parcel of
property owned in Spartanburg, South Carolina. In the coming
months, Greenidge intends to leverage the site’s power capacity,
optimal footprint and infrastructure for the development of a GPU
data center, with plans to activate the site by June 2025. In
tandem, Greenidge will also commission a study to evaluate the
timing and cost associated with the potential addition of 250 MW on
the remaining 130 acres of the property in South Carolina.
Greenidge CEO Jordan Kovler commented: “With our recent addition
of 100 MW of total power capacity, we continue to demonstrate the
positive progress we are making at Greenidge. This power delivery
agreement builds on the growth we recently announced in Mississippi
and North Dakota, and it shows our clear focus on increasing
profitability through steps that have the potential to transform
our business as we expand our footprint across the country. In the
coming months, we will execute on the development of these sites
while continuing to find additional opportunities that allow us to
grow.”
In March, Greenidge produced approximately 130 bitcoin, of which
42 bitcoin were produced by Greenidge-owned miners and 88 were
produced through our datacenter hosting. Greenidge’s hash rate in
March was approximately 2.62 EH/s, with 0.85 EH/s from
Greenidge-owned miners and 1.77 EH/s from our datacenter hosting.
Greenidge’s hash rate is expected to increase to 2.87 EH/s as a
result of ongoing deployment of over 2,700 of its miners. Moving
forward, Greenidge will report its bitcoin mined on a monthly
basis, in response to shareholder feedback.
