BITFARMS REACHES 240 MW AND 6.3 EH/S AS BAIE-COMEAU FULLY ENERGIZES INITIAL PHASE

Bitfarms Ltd. has fully energized the first phase of its farm in Baie-Comeau, Que., increasing its total operating capacity to 240 megawatts and its hashrate to 6.3 exahashes/second.

"By fully energizing Baie-Comeau, we increased our corporate operating capacity with cost-effective and clean hydro power and achieved our 6.3 EH/s goal," said Bitfarms chief executive officer Geoff Morphy. "This efficient facility leverages our operating and design expertise. We will continue to manage our balance sheet prudently to be positioned to capture growth opportunities both before and after the next bitcoin halving, expected in mid-April, 2024."

Bitfarms acquired Baie-Comeau in July, 2023, with the plan to reach 11 MW by the end of Q3 2023 and add another 11 MW when power is made available, which is expected in H2 2024. Production initiated with three MW and increased to about five MW consistently throughout August, 2023. In early October, 2023, Baie-Comeau added six MW, fully energizing the initial 11 MW phase.
