HIVE Digital Technologies ( (TSE:HIVE) ) just unveiled an announcement.

HIVE Digital Technologies, through its BUZZ HPC unit, is expanding its AI data center footprint in Canada by quadrupling liquid-cooled capacity from 4 MW in Manitoba to 16.6 MW across Manitoba and British Columbia. The partnership with Bell Canada AI Fabric adds a new British Columbia colocation site with 5 MW available immediately and an option for a further 7.6 MW, enabling large-scale deployment of next-generation AI-optimized GPUs.

This buildout gives HIVE a near-term ramp to more than 4,000 GPUs in Canada and a growth path to over 6,000 GPUs, without requiring additional capital expenditures for securing the new colocation capacity. The expansion underpins the company’s ambition to reach $200 million in contracted annualized HPC revenue by March 2027 and strengthens its positioning in sovereign AI compute, reinforcing Canada’s role in AI infrastructure while leveraging HIVE’s dual-engine model of Bitcoin mining and high-margin AI cloud services.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:HIVE) stock is a Hold with a C$3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on HIVE Digital Technologies stock, see the TSE:HIVE Stock Forecast page.
