Mivtach Shamir Energy Enters Server Farm Race with Jordan Valley Option

Mivtach Shamir's energy division has secured a ten-year option to develop a 100 MW server farm on 106 dunams in Kibbutz Ashdot Yaakov Meuhad, Jordan Valley. The deal allows Shamir Energy to plan, finance, and build the facility, with the potential for electricity generation or storage. This strategic move aligns with a limited government allocation for new server farms, where demand far exceeds supply, and leverages Shamir Energy's existing power generation expertise.
