Satoshi Energy Launches Behind-the-Meter Data Center at Texas

Cryptomine firm Satoshi Energy and energy firm Clearway this week announced the energization of a colocated high-performance computing data center at the Elbow Creek wind project in Howard County, Texas. The facility, hosted at Clearway’s 122MW Elbow Creek wind farm in Howard County, was developed in collaboration with the energy firm.

“This project delivers a compelling example of what’s possible when energy and compute are designed to work together from the start,” said Bob Bonner, VP of development at Satoshi Energy. “We appreciated Clearway’s openness to innovative commercial models and their collaborative approach to solving infrastructure challenges. The result is a strategically colocated development that showcases how aligning flexible load with generation can unlock meaningful value for both power producers and data infrastructure companies.”

“Clearway is excited to power a data center at our Elbow Creek wind project using abundant generation without adding stress to the local grid,” added Valerie Wooley, SVP of origination at Clearway. “This project underscores our commitment to developing innovative solutions to power data center loads by leveraging existing infrastructure. We are grateful to Satoshi Energy for their partnership and diligence on the project, which led to a successful outcome at Elbow Creek.”
