DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. has announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding with Malahat Nation to develop a total of 30 megawatts of artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, with the capacity evenly split between the two parties. DMG plans to develop its portion of the AI infrastructure at its Christina Lake facility, while Malahat will focus on expanding its infrastructure on Vancouver Island.
Both parties are committed to using clean energy in British Columbia, aligning with the province's sustainability goals. The project will be managed through a general partnership led by DMG. The final agreement signed by both parties indicates that the partnership plans to source power for Malahat's portion and future expansion phases from BC Hydro.
DMG will be responsible for the development, management, and operation of both data centers, aiming to meet the processing resilience needs of future customer projects. The collaboration highlights a forward-thinking approach to digital infrastructure, addressing both the demand for AI capabilities and the necessity for sustainable energy solutions.
DMG's strategic focus on its Christina Lake facility signifies a deliberate move to enhance its operational capabilities while fostering regional partnerships that benefit local communities like Malahat. The commitment to clean energy not only supports environmental goals but also positions the partners as leaders in the renewable energy sector as they embark on this innovative venture..
