ALPS is an energy & compute infrastructure company. We design, build and operate industrial-scale facilities at the intersection of energy access and global compute demand - with the operational discipline of an infrastructure business and the agility of a founder-led team.
What started as a single Bitcoin mining facility powered by Italy's hydroelectric network has evolved into a global platform: 240 MW of installed capacity across Oman, the United States and Bolivia, backed by institutional investors and strategic industrial and academic partnerships.
ABOUT
Build. Power.
Compute.
Founded in Italy in 2018, ALPS has grown from a single hydropower mining facility into an industrial-scale compute infrastructure company operating across four continents.
Explore our ProjectsWe believe that where energy is abundant and demand is not, compute has a right to exist. This conviction drives every site selection, every infrastructure decision and every partnership we build - and it is what makes circularity, for us, a structural feature of how the company operates, not a claim about how it looks.
