The demand for high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities is surging, and Bitfarms Ltd. (Nasdaq/TSX: BITF) is taking bold steps to rise to the opportunity. On August 5, 2025, Bitfarms announced its strategic partnership with T5 Data Centers, LLC, marking a significant milestone for advancing HPC and AI development at its Panther Creek campus in Pennsylvania. This collaboration brings together two industry leaders to create a cutting-edge digital infrastructure hub designed to meet the complex demands of next-generation computing.
A Strategic Partnership to Shape the Future
T5 Data Centers is renowned for its expertise in data center design, construction, and operations. By offering scalable and customizable solutions, T5 has built a solid reputation serving enterprise and hyperscale clients. Now, the company is leveraging its deep industry knowledge to support Bitfarms in transforming Panther Creek into a premier AI and HPC facility.
The partnership emphasizes pre-construction design and development planning, ensuring a smooth path toward a state-of-the-art data campus. By combining T5’s construction and operational expertise with Bitfarms’ vision for next-gen computing, the collaboration sets the stage for Pennsylvania to emerge as an innovative data center hub.
Ben Gagnon, CEO of Bitfarms, expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating:
“We are thrilled to announce our partnership with T5 Data Centers. With the seven major U.S. hyperscalers as their customers, T5 brings unparalleled industry expertise and is a proven leader in data center Construction, Development, and Operations. This collaboration validates the significant HPC/AI opportunity at our flagship Panther Creek campus in Pennsylvania, where strong political tailwinds following the recent White House commitment to $90 billion of AI investments intersect our 1 GW pipeline in Pennsylvania. Bitfarms is positioned at the forefront of the rapidly growing AI infrastructure market in the state. We are excited to leverage T5’s expertise to capitalize on this opportunity, driving development and delivering long-term value for our shareholders.”
Why Panther Creek Matters
Located in Pennsylvania, Panther Creek is uniquely positioned to become a hub for advanced data center infrastructure. With abundant space and energy resources, the site provides an ideal environment for large-scale HPC and AI operations. Bitfarms’ strategic focus on this campus aligns with broader efforts to establish Pennsylvania as a technological leader.
The political landscape also adds momentum to this initiative. The U.S. government’s $90 billion commitment to AI development underscores the escalating importance of sustainable and efficient digital infrastructure. This partnership ensures that Bitfarms and T5 are well-positioned to meet the growing demand for AI and HPC capabilities while contributing to regional economic growth and innovation.
Tom Mertz, President and COO of T5 Services, commented on the project’s significance, stating:
“We’re excited to be selected as a strategic construction partner for Bitfarms as they expand into HPC/AI data center development. Their Panther Creek, Pennsylvania property is well-positioned for building an advanced AI data center campus, and we look forward to supporting this next phase of their growth.”
