Long-lead time substation components have been ordered. The Company will deploy this capacity using a disciplined return-on-invested-capital (“ROIC”) framework, optimizing free cash-flow from green-energy powered data centre infrastructure.
Upon completion, HIVE’s renewable energy footprint is expected to reach approximately 540 MW, including 400 MW in Paraguay and 140 MW across Canada and Sweden.
