Announced

United States · 1 project · Last reported

Summary

Bitdeer development site on 41.8 owned acres at the former Niles Generating Station, demolished in 2013, in Weathersfield, Ohio, near Niles. Bitdeer launched it in September 2025 as a 300 MW grid-interconnected power pipeline under an interconnection agreement with FirstEnergy, which first scheduled energization for Q1 2029. Bitdeer's Q2 2026 results, with data as of 31 July 2026, target energization in Q4 2028, cite a transmission line extension agreement with a local utility, and list planned usage as colocation and AI cloud; the site is still described as a development site.
