Digihost Technology Inc., a U.S.-based leader in blockchain technology and computer infrastructure, is thrilled to announce its role as the anchor commercial subscriber for Nautilus Solar Energy’s newly launched 5.5 MW community solar project in Grand Island, New York.
New Solar Project to Provide Clean Energy for 850+ Residents and Businesses
This innovative initiative is designed to provide clean, affordable renewable energy to more than 850 local residents and businesses. Located less than 15 miles from Digihost’s New York facilities, the Grand Island community solar project is projected to produce 8.35 million kWh of clean energy annually. This output is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 6,000 metric tons—the equivalent of taking 1,400 cars off the road each year—and supports New York State’s target of sourcing 70% of its electricity from renewable resources by 2030.
“As a company deeply committed to reducing our carbon footprint while advancing cutting-edge technologies, we are thrilled to be the anchor subscriber for this community solar project. This partnership and long-term commitment reinforce our mission to integrate sustainable energy solutions into our operations, benefiting not only our company but also the local community and the planet. We are proud to play a role in advancing New York’s ambitious climate goals while contributing to a cleaner, greener future.” said Luke Marchiori, Chief Renewable Energy Officer of Digihost Technology Inc.
Digihost to Stabilize Solar Project via EnergyMark
By subscribing to the project through EnergyMark, which manages anchor subscribers, Digihost will help stabilize the project by providing a steady base for solar credit offtake. This crucial support ensures the project can operate effectively and produce renewable energy for the community.
The subscription also provides long-term cost savings and aligns with Digihost’s DigiGreen Initiative, which aims to achieve net-zero emissions from its BTC mining operations by 2030. In addition to using nearly emission-free electricity at its East Delavan facility, Digihost participates in several Demand Response programs that enhance grid reliability during peak times and further reduce carbon emissions.
