CleanSpark has announced it is working with Submer on an infrastructure platform that integrates power generation, data centre development and AI service delivery

CleanSpark is a US Bitcoin mining company that is also developing data centre infrastructure for AI workloads, while Submer is a specialist in liquid-cooled and prefabricated data centre solutions.

Under the framework, CleanSpark will focus on selecting, developing, building, and operating AI-focused campuses, while Submer will offer its technology and expertise in sustainable, modular data-centre systems.

“Submer has established itself as one of the most advanced and forward-thinking AI infrastructure firms in the industry," said Matt Schultz, CleanSpark's chief executive officer and chairman. "By combining our energy and land portfolio with Submer's state-of-the-art AI deployment and liquid-cooling expertise, we are positioned to deliver AI capacity at gigawatt scale, faster, cleaner, and more efficiently than traditional approaches. This relationship perfectly aligns with our vision of transforming CleanSpark's infrastructure platform into the backbone of the next era of intelligent computing.”

“This collaboration represents a pivotal step toward scaling AI infrastructure globally,” said Patrick Smets, chief executive officer of Submer. “CleanSpark's unmatched expertise in site development, power strategy, and large-scale infrastructure delivery and operations combined with Submer's ability to design and deploy high-density AI environments rapidly and efficiently, creates a new blueprint for sustainable, high-performance AI compute at scale. Together, we're building the industrial foundation for the Age of Intelligence and building the infrastructure that will sustain it.”

CleanSpark added that working with Submer accelerated its “capability and ability to scale at pace”. The company’s expansion into AI infrastructure builds upon its vertically integrated model and track record of rapid site development, allowing it to capitalise on the global surge in demand for digital infrastructure driven by artificial intelligence and compute-intensive applications.

CleanSpark and Submer have agreed to collaborate under a non-binding framework to evaluate opportunities for a definitive agreement and the development of AI data centres in North America.
