[Bitcoin Mining Companies Plan 30GW AI Power Capacity to Hedge Against Hashrate Price Pressure]
According to a report by Jinse Finance, several publicly listed Bitcoin mining companies are planning to add approximately 30 gigawatts (GW) of new power capacity to support artificial intelligence (AI)-related workloads. This scale is nearly three times their current operational power capacity of 11GW, indicating that mining companies are accelerating their transformation to address shrinking mining profit margins and prepare for the next growth cycle.
Statistics from TheEnergyMag show that this expansion plan involves 14 publicly listed Bitcoin mining companies, highlighting the industry's active shift from traditional hashrate operations to AI infrastructure amidst persistently low hashprice levels.
In terms of scale, the planned 30GW is equivalent to "a small nation-level power infrastructure." However, the reality is that most of this capacity is still in the development pipeline, grid connection queue, or early planning stages, rather than being operational facilities.
