CNC Lead

Crusoe Energy is on a mission to unlock value in stranded energy resources through the power of computation.

Take a look at what we do! -

We aim to align the long term interests of the climate with the future of global computing infrastructure. As data centers consume an exponentially growing power footprint to deliver technology to all connected devices, we are inspired by making sure that the energy meeting that demand is sourced in an environmentally responsible fashion. Crusoe co-locates mobile data centers with stranded energy resources, like flare gas and underloaded renewables, to deliver low-cost, carbon-negative distributed computing solutions.

Crusoe Cloud is a managed cloud services platform powered by stranded energy that enables climate‑friendly innovation in computationally intensive fields including artificial intelligence, graphics rendering and computational biology.
