Located on an oil and gas well, this remote data center handles large volume, blockchain and cryptocurrency mining. The customer approached Capstone looking for an innovative way to take advantage of their existing on-site associated production gas, a byproduct that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere.
Because Capstone microturbines are designed to offer fuel flexibility, the system will use the waste gas, essentially as free fuel, a benefit that not only reduces emissions but also offers operational savings. Further, the added reliability, low emissions, and nominal maintenance requirements of microturbine-based rental systems make them an ideal solution for remote locations, which can be hard to reach and often deal with challenging climate conditions.
Cryptocurrency mining is the process by which new crypto 'coins' are entered into circulation. Their production requires highly sophisticated computers, often in a data center, to solve complex computational math problems. By their very nature, data centers require tremendous amounts of electricity. At a time when the utility grid is strained due to extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and inadequate transmission, on-site power provides a resilient, cost-effective alternative for energy-intensive facilities.
