Zcash, on purpose
The operation is aimed at Zcash, a proof-of-work network. The machines have to match its algorithm. The reason is technical, and it is set out on the about page.
United Kingdom · Proof-of-work infrastructure
Zcash mining, built around cheap, clean power.
In Motion Mining is developing a large Zcash mining operation in cold, renewable-rich locations, starting in northern Norway, with possible UK sites.

- 01Power
Renewable electricity, with hydro in northern Norway as the lead path.
- 02Cooling
Cold air can lower the cooling load. It does not remove the need for a design.
- 03Machines
Equihash miners. Models and quantities stay unpublished until they are cleared.
- 04Network
A reliable connection for the work. Security arrangements stay off this site.
01 — The project
What we're building
A mining facility is a building, a power contract, a cooling path, and a fleet of machines. We are designing those pieces together, and we are still early.
Power before scale
The size of the hall follows the electricity that can actually be contracted. No tariff and no megawatt figure is published here.
A cold climate
Northern Norway is the leading area because hydroelectricity and cold air sit in the same place. UK sites are a possible second path.
02 — Energy
Why this energy model
Mining turns electricity into the work that orders transactions. The price and the carbon of that electricity decide whether a facility is a sensible thing to build.
The search is for renewable power that can be comparatively cheap, and for a climate that does some of the cooling. Norwegian hydroelectricity is the lead candidate. A contract is not in place, and no price is stated on this site. Cheap power is an aim of the search. It is not a promise that the operation will make money.
Read the sustainability and operation pages for the split between what we can say and what is still open.
03 — Places
Where we are looking
Northern Norway
A cold climate and a large hydroelectric system are the reasons this is the leading area. No municipality, plot, or power partner is named, because none has been agreed for publication.
Possible UK sites
A UK site would only be interesting where it could use surplus renewable electricity, with a grid connection and planning permission. That path is being assessed. It is not the lead plan.
