Active Energy Group plc
("Active Energy", the "Company" or the "Group")
Optimisation of Spare Digital Infrastructure Capacity and Treasury Management
Active Energy Group plc (AIM: AEG OTC: ATGVF), the renewable energy and
digital infrastructure company, announces that it intends to utilise spare and
transitional capacity across its UAE digital infrastructure network for
proprietary Bitcoin mining, as part of its Treasury management strategy.
This strategy is designed to maximise shareholder value by ensuring that
additional energy and infrastructure capacity does not sit idle during phased
site energisation and prior to full third-party client onboarding. By
deploying spare capacity internally, the Company can generate near-term value
while continuing to actively contract capacity to third-party hosting, AI, and
data infrastructure customers.
Any Bitcoin mined will be held within the Company's Treasury and managed in
line with policy limits so that, no more than 30% of the Company's treasury
will be held in digital assets at any given time. Where treasury holdings move
outside prescribed thresholds, the Company expects to rebalance accordingly,
including through the sale of surplus digital assets. Proceeds from any such
rebalancing may be reinvested directly into further infrastructure
development, supporting the Company's targeted expansion to 100MW of capacity
by the end of 2026.
An additional operational advantage of this approach is the acceleration of
future client onboarding. By installing and optimising mining equipment in
advance, procurement and installation lead times are materially reduced,
allowing new customers to become operational within the infrastructure
immediately and without delay.
Capacity Update
Further to the Company's RNS dated 6 October 2025, which confirmed that
approximately 35% of the capacity at its initial 8MW UAE site had been
pre-sold, the Company is pleased to announce that a further 25% of capacity
has now been secured under pre-sale arrangements. This brings total pre-sold
capacity at the site to approximately 60%. The Company believes this level of
pre-commitment demonstrates strong demand for the site and expects the
remaining capacity to be fully contracted once the facility becomes
operational. The Company currently anticipates the site to be operational
towards the end of January 2026.
The Company believes this approach differentiates Active Energy within the
market by tightly integrating ultra-low-cost energy generation with flexible,
high-performance digital infrastructure. This strategy helps bridge the gap
between the energy and digital asset sectors, positioning the Company at the
intersection of both.
Paul Elliott, Chief Executive Officer of Active Energy Group plc, commented:
"This strategy is a clear example of how Active Energy and its Board continue
to look for innovative and disciplined ways to maximise shareholder value. By
utilising spare infrastructure capacity efficiently, we avoid idle assets,
accelerate cash generation, and maintain full flexibility to support long-term
client growth. It also demonstrates how our energy platform and digital
infrastructure strategy work together to create a differentiated and scalable
business model."
Further updates will be provided as appropriate.
