The global transition toward sustainable energy and digital infrastructure accelerated this week, with major project announcements from Soluna Holdings, Greenlane, and DNV, supporting the growth of renewable power, clean transport, and resilient grid operations.
Soluna Expands 48 MW Renewable-Powered Computing with Galaxy Digital
Soluna Holdings has deepened its collaboration with Galaxy Digital to deploy 48 MW of computing capacity at Project Kati in Texas. This initiative integrates renewable energy with high-performance computing (HPC) to monetize excess wind and solar generation, thereby improving grid stability.
The project features modular data center infrastructure co-located with renewable assets for scalable, cost-effective growth. Core technologies include energy-efficient computing systems, AI-powered workload management, and grid-interactive controls. Target customers span cryptocurrency mining, AI processing, and other data-intensive industries seeking sustainable operations.
Benefits include increased renewable asset value, reduced power curtailment, local economic growth, and alignment with Texas’ clean energy and digital infrastructure strategies.
Greenlane Powers Long-Haul EV Transport with I-10 Charging Corridor
Greenlane has unveiled a major I-10 charging corridor to facilitate long-haul electric truck pilots in partnership with Windrose and Nevoya. Strategically placed ultra-fast charging stations along critical freight routes will support scalable, zero-emission freight operations across the Southwest.
The investment covers high-capacity charging hardware, grid upgrades, and renewable energy integration. Additional innovations include energy storage for load management and digital route optimization tools. The project targets fleet operators transitioning to electric heavy-duty transport, aiming to cut emissions, improve operational efficiency, and accelerate commercial EV adoption.
DNV Guides Orsted’s 632 MW Greater Changhua 2 Offshore Wind Financing
In Asia, DNV acted as Lenders’ Technical Advisor (LTA) for Orsted’s 632 MW Greater Changhua 2 offshore wind project in Taiwan, which reached financial close in July 2025. Located 50–60 km off Changhua County, the development includes the operational Greater Changhua 2a and the under-construction Greater Changhua 2b, backed by 25 banks and five export credit agencies.
DNV delivered a comprehensive technical due diligence and independent energy yield assessment of the wind farm and its transmission systems, enabling lenders to proceed confidently despite the site’s seismic and typhoon challenges. The project contributes to Taiwan’s 5.7 GW offshore wind goal for 2025 and 15 GW target by 2035, while advancing Orsted’s divestment and partnership strategy.
Global Impact
From Texas to the Taiwan Strait, these initiatives underscore the synergy between renewable energy, advanced technology, and sustainable infrastructure. Whether it’s grid-interactive HPC, long-haul EV corridors, or offshore wind farm financing, the clean energy transition is being reinforced by strategic partnerships and high-tech innovation.
