Hive Digital expands data center footprint into British Columbia

HIVE Digital (HIVE) Technologies announced a 4x expansion of its liquid-cooled AI data center capacity through its previously announced strategic data center partner in Canada, growing the existing 4 megawatts in Manitoba to 16.6 MW of critical IT load across two Canadian provinces, expanding HIVE’s BUZZ HPC Sovereign AI Compute offering in Canada. The expansion adds a new colocation facility in British Columbia, providing an immediate 5 MW of capacity with an option to scale an additional 7.6 MW. This new immediate capacity facilitates the deployment of upwards of 2,000 next-generation high-power density AI-optimized GPUs in British Columbia, complementing the capacity for approximately 2,000 GPUs in BUZZ’s existing Manitoba facility. In total, the Company now has a near-term ramp to over 4,000 GPUs in Canada through its data center partnerships and its own sites, accelerating the Company’s previously announced GPU AI cloud deployment targets for calendar 2026.
