Expands Contracted Utility Load at CLT-01 from 40 MW to 65 MW Under a 15-Year Term
Power Immediately Available Through Existing Onsite 34.5 kV Infrastructure, With No Significant Electrical Upgrades Required, to Meet Growing Demand Beyond Current Customer Commitments
NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BlockchAIn Digital Infrastructure, Inc. (NYSE:AIB) ("BlockchAIn" or the "Company"), a developer and operator of digital infrastructure focused on artificial intelligence ("AI") and high-performance computing ("HPC") workloads, today announced the execution of a 15-year Electric Service Agreement ("ESA") to expand contracted utility load at CLT-01, the Company's flagship data center campus currently being repositioned for AI/HPC infrastructure, from 40 megawatts ("MW") to 65 MW.
The full 65 MW is available through the existing 34.5 kV distribution line onsite, requiring no significant additional electrical infrastructure upgrades. This positions CLT-01 to rapidly accommodate rising neocloud and enterprise demand without the lead times associated with new power procurement and represents a key structural advantage relative to greenfield data center development.
The expanded utility commitment supports the Company's growing customer pipeline, which includes letters of intent representing 25 MW of committed critical IT load with a leading AI company and a financial institution. The Company's business development team, led by Eyal Rozen, Chief Operating Officer and former business development executive at Nebius, and Gary Heitz, Vice President of Sales and former business development leader at Google and Dell, is actively engaged with multiple prospective clients.
The newly expanded power load will represent the first phase of the site's broader infrastructure expansion. The remaining phase will include the design and installation of a new AI-optimized data center shell, which is expected to be completed over the next nine months. Project execution will be led by Christopher Iannacone, former Director of Project Management at Amazon, with 25+ years of experience overseeing 3+ gigawatts of data center capacity.
