Northern Data Group's Peak Mining Acquires Second 300MW Data Center in Texas

Northern Data Group's Peak Mining has announced the purchase of a second 300MW data center location in Corpus Christi, Texas. This site, adjacent to another 300MW facility purchased in December 2023, is ERCOT-approved and benefits from access to low-cost, renewable wind energy in Load Zone South of the ERCOT grid. Construction at the new site has already commenced, with energization scheduled for early 2025.

This expansion represents a strategic move for Northern Data Group, positioning Peak Mining as a leading global bitcoin miner. The new data center will use custom-designed, liquid-cooled HPC systems to enhance efficiency and reduce infrastructure costs.

Saxet Infrastructure Group, managing the construction, brings expertise in HPC infrastructure. Northern Data Group CEO Aroosh Thillainathan and Managing Director of Peak Mining, Niek Beudeker, emphasize the swift acceleration in hashing capabilities and commitment to sustainable energy sources.
