DMG’s initial order is for approximately 450 of its custom power channels. These additional power channels create 10,800 spaces for the newest generation ASIC bitcoin miners. DMG will also be ordering up to 15 forty-foot containers to be manufactured following DMG’s one megawatt air cooled crypto mining container design. Following this order DMG will focus on immersion cooling retrofitting orders, as well as client orders for crypto equipment, most of which are expected to be crypto mining containers. Once DMG’s engineering and related supply chain order fulfillments are completed, Black Box will also lead DMG’s planned solar panel deployment at its 80 MW Christina Lake facility.
