Bitzero Builds Clean, Scalable Data Centers for AI Future
As the world demands more and more digital power for initiatives like AIs, cloud computing, and cryptocurrency mining, energy companies around the world are racing to catch up. Rapid growth has drastically increased energy consumption and, in fact, global energy demand increased by more than 2% last year, a sharp contrast to worldwide averages around 1% growth. This inevitable demand for increased power increases strain on industries that are capital intensive and energy hungry, such as data centers.
Enter Bitzero Blockchain Inc. Backed by investor Kevin O’Leary and led by company CEO Mohammed Bakhashwain, Bitzero is redefining the clean and green approach to developing data centers — and they are doing it on a global scale, by launching sustainable data centers in North Dakota, Norway, and Finland.
What differentiates Bitzero from other mining operations in the industry? Unlike most of their competitors, Bitzero actually owns their infrastructure — meaning the land, the power, and the equipment. This provides security, margin control and operational control. Competitors use this idea of speed and scalability but Bitzero is less interested in high throughput and more interested in clean energy and sustainability. In Finland, Bitzero currently has a huge new sit in Kokemäki which boasts almost 1 million square meters of land. This location is operating with 10 megawatts of a clean energy mix which includes hydro, nuclear, solar, and wind. The plan for Kokemäki is to scale it up to 800 megawatts, creating one of the largest, greenest data centers in the world. In North Dakota, Bitzero has secured a 184-acre site located in Nekoma, a site famous for its pyramid from the Cold War. This site is currently operational and scaling up from here is imminent with a plan for up to 300 megawatts of computing power. They easily blend traditional with future renewable energy there. The combination of the two types of energy is perfect for large-scale and secure operations.
Norway has two fully hydro-powered facilities, Namsskogan already operating at 40 megawatts and increasing to 110MW. The second site in Røyrvik is smaller, but is key operationally as it’s in the exact area. The real win? Bitzero isn’t just looking to grow; it’s building smarter. Bitzero has set its centers in cold climes; not only does this minimize energy usage but Bitzero will naturally cool the servers. Here, we have clean energy, full ownership, and better design. Bitzero is demonstrating what the future of computing should look like with hydro powered services; high- tech, high-performance, and high-responsibility.
