Ellendale ND deployment and energization start
Company: Marathon Digital - Project: Ellendale
What the later record shows
Delivered; the record does not say when
The FY2023 10-K lists Ellendale, ND as 180 MW energized at 7.8 EH/s with 57,000 S19 XPs as of December 31, 2023. Neither passage says when energization started or when deployment finished, so on-time delivery against the late-Q1/H1 2023 targets cannot be confirmed.
