Midland-based Mawson Infrastructure Group, a digital infrastructure company, completed on Tuesday its planned expansion of its Midland digital infrastructure and bitcoin mining facility.

The 20 megawatt expansion increases the facility’s total power capacity by 20 percent. It also has a capacity to support approximately 38,810 miners for either self-mining or digital co-location business services.

“With this expansion now successfully complete, this site is expected to be amongst the largest operating sites in the PJM (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland) market currently operated by a North American Public Bitcoin Mining Company,” Rahul Mewawalla, Mawson CEO and president, said. “Our digital infrastructure platforms will benefit from this expansion, especially given the greater Pittsburgh area is a growing hub of innovation around digital infrastructure, digital assets, artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. We believe the PJM market is one of the most attractive operating markets for digital infrastructure in the United States, and our continued growth represents our commitment to fostering further innovation. This represents an exciting chapter in Mawson’s growth and we look forward to the long-term value that this expansion will provide to our company, our customers, and our shareholders.”

The company also recently expanded the self-mining capacity at the its Bellefonte facility by 8.8 megawatts.
