Sangha Renewables announced the energization of its 19.9 MW project in Ector County, West Texas. Sangha's data center operates behind-the-meter on a 150 MW solar farm and leverages the flexibility of bitcoin mining to pioneer a new model for integrating renewable energy and this emerging industry. The project was developed with the support of Links Genco, which provided energy-structuring and grid-compliance services.
Under the terms of the agreement: Sangha will develop, own, and operate the mining facility, provide high-efficiency mining hardware and advanced load-management capabilities designed to complement more renewable generation on the grid; TotalEnergies will deliver comprehensive retail power solutions, including balancing services, supplemental grid power during non-solar hours, and structured power products designed to manage price volatility while ensuring reliability for Sangha's operations. It is always beneficial for the load to be as close to generation as possible, and this collaboration offers a commercial framework to ensure that flexible location agnostic load can get closer to generation. By operating behind-the-meter, Sangha's facility unlocks additional value for renewable power assets, and is a complementary offer particularly attractive in areas prone to local transmission congestion.
Beyond Sangha's development, this model supports energy producers, the regional energy grid, and ultimately the rate payers. The full energization of the mining facility was announced during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on December 12, 2025, followed by a guided tour of the facility. Guests included the County Judge, as well as representatives from Links Genco, TotalEnergies, and other industry leaders.
