Soluna Secures 12 MW Modular Data Center Deployment at Project Kati 1 in Texas with Cormint Partnership
Soluna Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLNH), a developer of green data centers for high-intensity computing applications such as Bitcoin mining and artificial intelligence, has announced the execution of an Equipment Supply Agreement with Cormint Data Systems, a Texas-based provider of data center infrastructure. The agreement supports a 12 MW deployment at Project Kati 1, Soluna’s wind-powered data center campus in Willacy County, Texas. Under the terms of the deal, Cormint will design, procure, and deliver eight modular data center units for the initial phase of Project Kati 1. These fully integrated compute containers are pre-fabricated and come equipped with transformers, power distribution systems, cooling and ventilation, monitoring tools, racking, and all necessary cabling—enabling rapid on-site deployment with minimal labor and accelerated energization timelines. The modular units feature a patented design that allows for comprehensive system testing and quality assurance prior to shipment, ensuring reliability and performance. Each unit includes a 2MW transformer, smart main breakers, pre-terminated power distribution units, advanced cooling systems, sensor networks, and universal racking, all factory-integrated for seamless installation. John Belizaire, CEO of Soluna, described Project Kati as a blueprint for scalable renewable computing. He emphasized that aligning infrastructure delivery with clean energy availability and building in scalability for future demand are central to Soluna’s strategy. The units are expected to be manufactured immediately, with delivery targeted for Q1 2026 and commissioning anticipated by Q2 2026. Jamie McAvity, CEO of Cormint, highlighted the growing market demand for speed and certainty in data center deployment. He noted that modular, standardized infrastructure offers a practical solution, enabling repeatable, efficient, and reliable operations across projects. Project Kati 1 is an 83 MW facility dedicated to Bitcoin mining, with the 12 MW deployment marking the first phase of a scalable, renewable-powered computing platform. Soluna’s approach leverages surplus wind energy by co-locating its data centers with renewable generation sites, using proprietary software MaestroOS™ to optimize energy use and deliver sustainable computing solutions. The company continues to advance its mission of transforming renewable energy into global computing resources, supporting high-performance applications while promoting a greener grid.
