Key Project Updates:
Project Dorothy 1A (25 MW, Bitcoin Hosting) / Project Dorothy
1B (25 MW, Bitcoin Prop-Mining):
- The site delivered a solid month of production during a hot
August in Texas. As expected over the summer, the site saw
meaningful curtailment from its power provider during the
month.
- Site optimization efforts will be completed by the end of
September adding resilience against extreme weather conditions in
the future. These efforts include building insulation, heat
shielding, and power infrastructure active cooling solutions.
Project Dorothy 2 (48 MW, Bitcoin Hosting):
- Soluna announced the groundbreaking of Dorothy 2 construction
in a ceremony attended by key stakeholders, partners, and the local
community who have been instrumental in the project’s
development.
- Civil, mechanical, and electrical construction staff have been
mobilized to the site and work is well underway. The remaining long
lead equipment items will arrive on-site in the coming weeks.
[New] Project Grace (2 MW, AI Cloud/Hosting):
- The Helix Data Center at the Wind farm near Dorothy 2 finally
has a name – Project Grace. The planned AI facility is named after
Grace Hopper, an esteemed computer scientist and one of the first
computer programmers to work on the Harvard Mark I. Her work led to
COBOL, an early programming language we still use today. In 1947,
she recorded the world's first ever real computer bug, and it is
also said that she coined the phrase: “It is often easier to ask
for forgiveness than to ask for permission.”
[New] Project Ada (1 MW, AI Cloud with HPE):
- The HPE Data Center housing the initial H100 Cluster is named
after Ada Lovelace. Ada is known as the first programmer due to her
written notes explaining how the notion of an engine could
transition calculation to computation.
- Demand and utilization for the cluster are growing rapidly with
multiple proof-of-concept projects with enterprise customers in
progress.
Project Sophie (25 MW, Bitcoin Hosting with Profit Share, AI
Hosting):
- The site has maintained strong operations through the end of
the summer benefiting from fleet optimization efforts and
infrastructure upgrades.
Project Kati (166 MW, Bitcoin Hosting and AI):
- ERCOT approved the Reactive Power Study, the last study
required to exit planning.
- Negotiations continue with landowners for the site land
leases.
- Helix One concept phase has kicked off with top-tier hyperscale
design firm, kW Mission Critical Engineering.
