The Company also closed its acquisition of the 100 MW Stingray site in November. Expected to energize in 2026, the Stingray site complements Cipher’s other new data centers scheduled to energize in 2025 and 2027. The Company’s active portfolio and development pipeline now totals more than 2.6 GW of potential power capacity across 11 sites.
