Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. has announced that its first Australian site will be online this month and powered by 100% renewable energy. This will be achieved in partnership with Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners.
Based in New South Wales, Australia, the site will have a capacity of 20MW, and Mawson will also deploy a new generation Modular Data Centre (MDC) at this facility.
Speaking about the partnership with Quinbrook, James Manning, CEO and Founder of Mawson, said: "Quinbrook's values, experienced team and diverse operations made them a logical partner. Our partnership reflects our joint view that renewable energy will be key to future data centre infrastructure. Mawson is seeking to identify renewable energy projects which lead the transition to a decarbonized society, with a key focus on sustainable bitcoin mining. Quinbrook's deep experience in energy and focus on ESG investment principles made this first project an obvious choice."
