In August, Mining Depot will launch a data center on the premises of AKKERMANN Cement

In August 2025, Mining Depot launches the first stage of a new data center for mining in the city of Novotroitsk on the territory of the largest cement producer in Russia, the AKKERMANN Cement plant.

According to Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index, Russia is among the top 5 countries in terms of mining volume. New data centers contribute to network decentralization and increased reliability of the energy system.

Already at the start, 10 MW of capacity will be available, and the total potential will reach 40 MW. The modern infrastructure of the site and a fairly large reserve of capacity make it extremely attractive to large investors.

According to a report by ResearchAndMarkets, the Russian data center market is growing by 15% annually, which is why investments in mining infrastructure will exceed $2026 million by 500.

The launch of the data center in Novotroitsk is not only an increase in investment in mining, but also an example of how digital infrastructure changes the economy of regions,” said Artem Kartashev, CEO of Mining Depot.

Large consumers such as data centers reduce the load on the network due to uniform consumption and stimulate generation modernization. As a result, tariffs for the population can be reduced by 3-5%. The emergence of such a site will also have a positive effect on the revenue of energy sales companies in the region. Thus, the data center in Novotroitsk will bring in more than 1,5 billion rubles per year.

The site is starting with a partial load, so the first clients will be able to count on favorable conditions. Thanks to the developed infrastructure, strategic partnership of Mining Depot with AKKERMANN Cement, as well as optimal tariffs, users of the data center in Novotroitsk will have the opportunity to scale their business and increase income from investments in mining.
