Soluna Holdings, Inc., a developer of green data centers for intensive computing applications, has received approval from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) to commence the initial energization and phased commissioning of Project Kati 1 on schedule. This 83 MW wind-powered data center campus, located in South Texas, is dedicated to Bitcoin mining.
Project Kati represents one of Soluna’s largest sites to date and is powered entirely by the Las Majadas wind energy project. The facility is designed to scale efficiently to support large industrial compute workloads, including Bitcoin mining.
Energization of Project Kati 1 will occur in phases, beginning with Kati 1A, a 48 MW section expected to come online in three phases and be fully ramped by early Q2. Kati 1B, a 35 MW section, will follow a similar three-phase approach, with completion anticipated by the end of Q3. Kati 1B includes a 12 MW deployment with Cormint, where Soluna will design, procure, and deliver eight modular data center units to facilitate efficient deployment by minimizing on-site labor and accelerating energization timelines. The initial energization date is set for February 9, 2026.
John Belizaire, CEO of Soluna, stated, “This is a major milestone for Project Kati 1, and a clear demonstration of our blueprint for Renewable Computing at scale.” He added that the energization of this site represents an increase of more than 67 percent in Soluna’s total capacity, expanding the number of customers the company can serve with its “Relentless Stewardship Bitcoin Hosting platform.”
Upon completion, Project Kati 1 has an anticipated annual revenue of $17.3 million to $19.6 million and a projected hashrate capacity of 3.5 EH/s. The estimated date of completion for the entire project is Q4.
