STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN (15 February, 2018) - Stockholm IT Ventures AB (Frankfurt Stock Exchange: SVAB), a Swedish technology company specialising in clean and efficient low-cost energy cryptocurrency mining, today announced its subsidiary, Block Trade Technology Ltd, has entered into a long-term lease agreement with Colabitoil Sweden AB (AktieTorget: COLAB), a Swedish company specializing in renewable fuels.
 
This deal underscores Stockholm IT Ventures' commitment to partnering with the leading authorities in green energy solutions and technologies for cryptocurrency mining and production. Colabitoil has been a driving force in the manufacturing of renewable fuels, and the leading developer of renewable diesel HVO in Sweden since the company was founded in 2013. The Nordic region offers a unique and robust environment for cultivating and producing clean and efficient energy mining.
 
"This partnership further strengthens Stockholm IT Ventures' position as a solid partner for existing cryptocurrency miners looking to relocate. The relocation of servers from unaccommodating crypto domiciles to the clean energy friendly country of Sweden is a strong trend we predicted months ago, and now it is now a reality," said Anthony Norman, CEO, Stockholm IT Ventures.
 
The agreement was signed on February 9, 2018 with residence to begin on March 1, 2018. The leased space will accommodate 1880 servers and three MW of power in the first phase with additional build out planned over the next three to six months. The infrastructure allows Stockholm IT Ventures to use up to 20 MW from the grid.
 
"We welcome Block Trade Technology Ltd as a tenant. We look forward to keep developing our sustainable business by recycling of surplus heat and create job opportunities in the area. The agreement completes our ambition to lease current available premises in Norrsundet, Sweden." says Jan Nordlöf, CEO at Colabitoil Sweden AB.
