Background

The project is located at the Tech One Crossing Technology Center in northeastern Kearney. It will consist mostly of outdoor container-based mining operations. While the project is located near a 5.8 MW solar installation, it is unclear if Compute North is purchasing this small fraction of renewable energy for its operations. The facility leases most or all of its hosting capacity to other miners, such as Foundry LLC and Bit Digital.[1] [2][3]
