SAI.TECH ANNOUNCES TO HOST THE UPCOMING “2ND BIT HEAT DAY” AT ITS NEWLY POWERED UP U.S. R&D CENTER SAI NODE MARIETTA IN OHIO
SINGAPORE, Aug. 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SAI.TECH Global Corporation (“SAI.TECH” or “SAI” or the “Company”, NASDAQ: SAI, SAITW) is proud to announce the return of its 2nd “Bit Heat Day,” which will take place on August 9, 2023, in Marietta, Ohio. The second Bit Heat Day will be held at the newly built SAI US R&D Center SAI NODE Marietta and the OCEC Computing Heat Recycle Technology Development Center (together, the “Centers”), which is successfully powered on today after months of development.
About Bit Heat Day
The 2nd, 2023 Bit Heat Day is hosted by SAI and the Organization of Clean Energy and Climate (“OCEC”), a non-profit organization. On the event, SAI and OCEC will unveil the groundbreaking SAI US R&D Center SAI NODE Marietta and OCEC Computing Heat Recycle Technology Development Center located in Marietta, Ohio. The guests will be the first to witness how SAI’s proprietary technology captures waste heat from high-performance computing and supply the recycled heat for greenhouse heating in a controlled manner. The recycled heat can be used not only to benefit agricultural operations, but also have the potential to expand to residential and commercial heating applications, or fishery and poultry applications in the future.
The SAI US R&D Center and OCEC Computing Heat Recycle Center will serve as an open scale-up testing platform for computing heat capture and supply technology, data center operation system and various heat recycle applications supported by current and future AI and Bitcoin mining technology.
“On last year’s 1st Heat Day, we used SAI’s liquid cooling waste heat recovery technology to bring Satoshi Nakamoto’s prediction into reality. In 2010, Satoshi said that Bitcoin mining would ultimately be used for heating. On the 2nd Bit Heat Day event, when the timing coincides with the growing demand for AI computing, we hope to use SAI’s solution to quickly transition the computing power of BTC and AI to a clean and sustainable state.” The founder and CEO of SAI, Arthur Lee, expresses his excitement about this upcoming event. “We also hope that more chip, computing power, and cloud computing service companies will join us to accelerate this process.”
Arthur believes that in 10 years, at least 30% of the global BTC and AI computing power should have the capability to utilize waste heat. Only in this way can the globe accelerate the realization of carbon neutrality. He adds, “our mission is to let every individual in the future benefit from sustainable and cost-effective BTC & AI computing services.”
This initiative underscores SAI’s dedication to empowering the intensive computing industry with sustainability and social responsibility.
