Bitcoin mining equipment and service provider Compass Mining has reached an agreement with Compute North to supply 75 MW of power to the blockchain hosting provider’s data center.

Compass plans to deploy 25,000 ASIC miners at a facility in Granbury, Texas. Installation will begin in August and will take several months. Hardware includes latest generation devices such as Antminer S19 XP, Antminer S19j Pro and Whatsminer M30S++.

The Compute North data center is powered by the 1.1 GW Wolf Hollow combined cycle power plant. The hosting provider has an agreement for 300 MW with the possibility of increasing to 600 MW.

Compute North uses container solutions from Colorado-based RK Mission Critical to host miners. Each block houses about 560 devices with a usable power of 2 MW.

The provider collaborates with several public mining companies, including Marathon Digital Holdings. Compass equipment also operates at the Compute North facility in Nebraska.

In June, hosting provider Dynamics Mining terminated its miner hosting contract with Compass, citing non-payment of bills.

Recall that at the end of the same month, the mining company laid off CEO Witt Gibbs and CFO Jody Fisher.

In July, Compass’ new management announced they were laying off 15% of their employees and cutting costs.
