The agriforce growing system launched Its first bitcoin
The mining and digital compute site in Berwyn, Alberta, using stranded natural gas in power 120 mining machines.
The site, built using Blueflare Energy, marked the company’s first milestone operating in a broader approach to off-grid natural gas in energy-backed digital infrastructure.
The Berwyn facility currently takes 425 kW and delivers more than 32 petahashes per second (pH/s) of compute power. The second stage under the development will expand the capacity of another 200 kW. Blueflare systems monitor leaks and provide real-time telemetry through OS ownership and carbon tracking tech.
Using flared gas in bitcoin mine is a way that miners are looking to use a cheaper energy source to offset some of the margin squeeze that hurts the industry. For many years, flared gas bitcoin mining has become a trend for miners to monetized otherwise wasted excessive natural gas produced when oil and gas companies were drilling for fossil fuels.

This expansion is part of the three-pronged approach of agriforce: Bitcoin mining, developing modular compute infrastructure, and direct energy monstizing.
That procedure gained traction with a new agreement that binds between Agriforce and Blueflare to expand operations to two additional sites of Alberta, Oyen and Hinton. Combined, these deployments can add 1.3 MW of natural-gas-powered compute, supporting tasks beyond bitcoin mining-such as AI Model Inference and side computing for industrial devices.
The Agriforce model is pursuing the grid dependencies of the sidesteps by taping unused energy reserves and they are quickly brought online. The company said it had a mine of seven BTCs across Alberta and Ohio and plans to maintain half of Bitcoin handles while using the rest for expanding operating.
AGRIFORCE aims to scale 1 exahash per second (eh/s) of compute capacity by Q1 2026, positioning itself as a player at the intersection of energy markets and decentralized infrastructure.
