ClearSpark CEO Zach Bradford addressed the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, expressing deep condolences to those affected across the Southeastern U.S. He acknowledged the challenges communities face, particularly in rural Georgia where the company operates, and praised the resilience of both local communities and the company’s employees.
ClearSpark teams have worked closely with local utilities to restore power and minimize disruption, successfully bringing back a significant portion of their operations. At the height of the storm, 365 MW were shut down for safety, but within 24 hours, hashrate increased to 17.5 EH/s, with a goal of reaching 28 EH/s as operations fully recover. Fortunately, no significant damage occurred to the company’s infrastructure or equipment.
Bradford emphasized the team's dedication, expressing gratitude for their hard work and commitment during this crisis.
