Details of the Project: Reopening of the Valatie Falls Hydroelectric Dam
Valatie Falls Dam was constructed in 1983 to generate 1-megawatt of electricity to serve the Valatie community. In March 2018, Digital Power Lending, a DPW subsidiary provided debt financing the LLC to acquire the dam. With the acquisition of the dam, Super Crypto Mining intends to build a new cryptocurrency mining farm at the dam’s site which will pioneer its new proprietary AntEater Miner. The new mining chip, launched in early 2018 was developed in collaboration with Samsung Semiconductors.
Milton Ault III, CEO, and Chairman of DPW Holdings, Inc stated that the acquisition and repurpose of Valatie Falls dam to provide dedicated and low-cost renewable power to the mining firm was vital in enabling the company to achieve an economically feasible and self-sustaining cryptocurrency mining venture.
Additionally, he affirmed that the project would provide an avenue in which various DPW subsidiaries will collaborate and transform cryptocurrency mining by significantly cutting down on the high electricity operational cost.
The project would be engineered by power solution engineers at Coolisys Technologies, Inc who collaborated with Super Crypto Mining engineers and LLC’s hydroelectric engineers tasked to upgrade and retrofit the Valatie Falls dam.
