Bitcoin, crypto, and batchable computing – could they be the keys to scaling the renewables sector?
John Belizaire, CEO at Soluna Computing, sits down with experts to discuss the path to making renewables the primary, most affordable energy source.
Soluna (Nasdaq: SLNH) develops integrated, utility-scale projects that combine renewable energy power plants with high-performance computing facilities–turning curtailed or wasted energy into profits.
In this episode of Clean Integration, Soluna CEO John Belizaire sits down with Jamie McAvity, Founder and CEO of Cormint Data Systems, to talk about what really powers modern compute: infrastructure.
From early missteps to a refined, infrastructure-first model, Jamie shares how Cormint is rethinking the design, build, and deployment of data centers. Together, John and Jamie break down why energy, not hardware, is quickly becoming the defining constraint in scaling AI and Bitcoin infrastructure.
The conversation also dives into Soluna and Cormint’s collaboration on Project Kati 1, and what it reveals about the future of modular, renewable-powered data centers.
In this episode, they cover:
- Why an “infrastructure-first” approach is critical to avoiding risk and building durable, scalable systems
- How zero-based design helps eliminate unnecessary complexity and accelerate deployment
- The strategic advantage of colocating with renewable energy, especially within ERCOT
- What Project Kati 1 reveals about the future of modular data center builds
