Title: Renewables Powered Data Centre in Australia - Crypto Mining Post by: OzTriGen on May 13, 2024, 12:15:35 PM Hello all,
Just testing the waters - for a new-build Data Centre in Australia, how would I go about (where would I find) miners to engage as potential customers? My current Project Proposal Business Plan specifies a 1MW.it Data Centre comprising of 200 x 5kW racks. The previous iteration of the Business Plan specified a 3MW.it Data Centre. Happy to discuss my budgeted one-off setup cost & monthly charge (per 5kW rack, inclusive of Electricity & Cooling). Thanks in advance, Dan Title: Re: Renewables Powered Data Centre in Australia - Crypto Mining Post by: spectre71 on May 14, 2024, 02:02:13 AM Hello all, Just testing the waters - for a new-build Data Centre in Australia, how would I go about (where would I find) miners to engage as potential customers?

Thanks in advance, Dan First is how much does energy cost? 1 to 3 mw is nothing but a drop in the bucket, no negotiating power there. How much would it cost to cool said dacenter? Is it not in the desert? Better be cheap ass power. 5K per rack? think 30kw. Think 100 plus MW installation to get on the big boys radar.... Cheap power. Cheap power, cheap power, cheap power.... Lot's of really cheap power... I thought the Australian grid is a wanker? How about Kiwi hydro? How close to 4 cents US can you get to a Kwh?

Power is charged ridiculously high, and the government is literally brain dead and hypocritical when it comes to power sources. e.g. they mine coal and uranium and sell it overseas, but wont use uranium and go on about how bad coal is - lol Aus is the largest source of uranium in the world. |
