NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#bitcoin—Atlas Technology Group LLC (“Atlas”), a global leader in the digital asset space and one of the largest ASIC mining companies; and Compute North, a leading company in mining infrastructure, today announced a multi-year hosting service agreement under which Compute North will provide over 100MW colocation capacity for Atlas’ U.S. mining operations.
Headquartered in Singapore, with burgeoning operations in North America and Central Asia, the deal with Compute North is part of Atlas’ broader strategy for accelerating its global expansion.

Atlas operates its mining business globally and highly values the partnership with local companies, like Compute North, who share our vision for sustainability and environmental responsibility.”
To achieve sustainable growth in adherence to its ESG commitments, Atlas is carrying out a mass adoption of renewable energy, with a long-term goal to be 100% carbon-free. This pursuit also includes exploring expansion into Northern Europe, South America and Africa to capitalize on the availability of renewable energy and vibrant workforces.
“We’re proud that Compute North’s focus on sustainable mining solutions factored into Atlas Mining’s decision to partner with us for its upcoming U.S. deployment,” said Dave Perrill, CEO at Compute North. “Our pioneering TIER 0™ data center design creates significant cost efficiencies and establishes us as a critical partner to the overall stability of local power grids as they bring more renewables online.”
