"As a company, CleanSpark has consistently been committed to increasing clean, reliable, distributed energy into the world's electrical grids. Coupling our expanding cryptocurrency mining operations with additional clean energy resources both onsite and in the surrounding communities is integral to our core values as stewards for the environment. With increasing energy crises, it is more important now than ever to maximize efficiency and minimize the carbon footprint of our operations," said Rich Inman, vice president of technology.
The Company’s ESG strategy also helps the communities it operates in. Aside from using renewable energy mixes for its mining operations, CleanSpark facilitates more reliant transmission lines with infrastructure-level upgrades and invests in state solar power programs, such as Georgia’s Simple Solar. This approach is making a positive impact on the local economy by developing abandoned areas and creating new job opportunities.
“Our goal is to drive the adoption of clean and energy-efficient bitcoin mining while delivering value to our shareholders and communities we operate in,” CEO Zach Bradford said. “Finding ways to be good partners in surrounding neighborhoods is part of that vision.”
