Digihost to Develop High-Performance Computing and AI-Tier Data Centers Through Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, US Data Centers, Inc.
11 Febbraio 2025 - 1:30PM
Digihost Technology Inc. (“
Digihost” or the
“
Company”) (Nasdaq / TSXV: DGHI), is proud to
announce the formation of US Data Centers, Inc. (“
US Data
Centers”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which
will be dedicated to the development of high-performance computing
(“
HPC”) and artificial intelligence
(“
AI”)-focused data centers. The new US Data
Centers website can be found at www.usdatacenters.ai.
A Purpose-Built AI and HPC Data Center
Platform
With the launch of US Data Centers, Digihost is
creating a dedicated platform focused entirely on delivering AI and
HPC solutions, ensuring purpose-built infrastructure for the next
generation of computing. As its first major initiative, US Data
Centers plans to lead the transformation of the Company’s existing
site in Columbiana, Alabama into a state-of-the-art Tier 3 data
center designed to support next-generation AI and HPC
workloads.
The project is planned to be executed in two
phases, with a total aggregate planned capacity of 55 MW. The first
phase is expected to result in 22 MW of HPC capacity, with a target
completion date during the second quarter of 2026 and requiring
planned capital expenditures of approximately $176 million. The
second phase will consist of an additional 33 MW, with a target
completion date during the first quarter of 2027 and requiring
planned capital expenditures of approximately $264 million. The
total capital expenditure for the project is estimated at
approximately $440 million. The Company plans to finance the
project primarily through debt by leveraging anticipated
predictable future revenues anticipated from the completion of the
proposed project.
This strategic investment underscores Digihost’s
commitment to expanding its infrastructure to meet the growing
demand for AI-driven computing power and cloud services. US Data
Centers was formed to transform the Alabama facility by integrating
scalable computing power with energy-efficient solutions, ensuring
performance, reliability, and sustainability for enterprises,
research institutions, and AI-driven businesses.
“The rapid growth of AI applications requires
robust, high-performance infrastructure, and this strategic
investment will help us meet that demand with a Tier 3-certified,
AI-optimized facility designed for scalability and efficiency,”
said Michel Amar, CEO of Digihost.
The launch of US Data Centers comes at a pivotal
moment, as AI adoption accelerates and the demand for high-density,
low-latency computing power continues to rise. The surge in AI
models and cloud computing has created unprecedented demand for
HPC-optimized infrastructure, making scalable, energy-efficient
data centers a critical requirement for businesses at the forefront
of innovation.
By establishing US Data Centers as a
wholly-owned subsidiary, Digihost is reinforcing its commitment to
delivering the next generation of computing infrastructure. Upon
completion of the project, the Alabama facility is expected to
leverage advanced cooling technologies, sustainable energy
strategies and Tier 3 certification to create a resilient,
cost-effective AI data center ecosystem. As US Data Centers
expands, Digihost will continue exploring partnerships, enterprise
collaborations and customer acquisition opportunities to support
its vision of becoming a leader in AI-ready infrastructure.
