Northern Data Group’s Peak Mining Purchases Second 300MW Data Center Location in Texas

Peak Mining, part of Northern Data Group, has acquired a second 300MW ERCOT-approved data center site in Corpus Christi, Texas. This new site expands on an adjacent 300MW location purchased in December 2023 and aims for energization by early 2025. The combined capacity underscores Northern Data Group’s strategy to bolster its bitcoin mining capabilities.

The expansion is situated in the ERCOT grid’s Load Zone South, known for abundant wind energy. Saxet Infrastructure Group will manage the construction, bringing expertise in high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure.

Managing Director Niek Beudeker of Peak Mining noted that this acquisition accelerates their goal to become a leading global bitcoin miner. CEO Aroosh Thillainathan emphasized the strategic importance of harnessing HPC power for Northern Data Group’s growth ambitions.
