The site sits on a major regional fiber backbone and lies adjacent to natural gas pipelines, offering the flexibility to incorporate behind-the-meter generation if needed. CleanSpark closed the transaction with a mix of cash and common stock, with additional cash payments contingent on post-closing milestones. 

CleanSpark has already begun developing the site and expects to have over 200 MW online in H2 2027.
