Laos 40MW Digital Infrastructure Project (Key Case)
Future Energy’s shareholder-company experience includes a licensed 40 MW digital-infrastructure facility in Laos.
Lao Crypto Mining received a pilot cryptocurrency-mining licence in January 2022, began construction of a US$4 million, 40 MW load facility the following month and entered operation in October 2022. The facility reports approximately 11,300 Bitmain S19j Pro and L7 units, peak computing capacity of 1.5 EH/s and peak monthly production of 90 BTC.

The project reports more than US$40 million in cumulative foreign-exchange value generated for the national utility. For an Alberta gas counterparty, the most relevant point is operating maturity: the shareholder group has experience maintaining high-load-factor electrical demand, managing cooling and airflow, scheduling equipment maintenance, monitoring uptime and coordinating with a power supplier.
Future Energy also has approximately 20 MW of BTC and computing-load capacity available for the current launch program through existing equipment and contractual arrangements. This gives the generation project an immediate, controllable demand base capable of staged integration and operation.
| DEMAND CREDIBILITY
Vertex does not need to learn continuous-load operations or find its first power customer after a gas contract is signed. The team, equipment and initial demand are already aligned; once the project is approved, connected and supplied, the gas molecule can begin generating cash flow for both parties. |
