Digi Power X North Tonawanda
Operating · 1070 Erie Avenue, North Tonawanda, NY
Digi Power X (formerly Digihost) owns a 60 MW gas-fired power plant in North Tonawanda, New York, the former Fortistar North Tonawanda plant at 1070 Erie Avenue, acquired in February 2023 after FERC and PSC approvals. Its bitcoin mining infrastructure sits beside the plant, and the city approved container slabs there in 2021. The plant also runs as a peaker for NYISO, and Digihost joined a fast-acting NYISO curtailment program. The company reports 123 MW secured in North Tonawanda and is evaluating conversion of its New York facilities to data centers.
