Bitcoin miner MARA has partnered with MPLX to establish a significant energy-to-compute infrastructure in West Texas. The collaboration will utilize MPLX's Delaware Basin natural gas resources to create integrated power generation and data center campuses. Initially, the project will have a capacity of 400 MW, with plans to scale up to 1.5 GW. This initiative is designed to support Bitcoin mining, AI, and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads, while also offering grid sales. The infrastructure is expected to have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years, providing multiple offtake options. MARA's strategy reflects a growing industry trend towards dual-use infrastructure, aiming to optimize returns by balancing crypto mining and data center hosting based on real-time price signals.
