Talen Energy 瞄准数据中心开发商，远离加密货币挖矿

纽约（路透社）——随着独立电力公司寻求摆脱其加密货币挖矿业务，Talen Energy 专注于捕捉数据中心开发商不断增长的需求

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Independent power company Talen Energy is pivoting away from its crypto mining operation and focusing on capturing surging demand from data center developers, company executives said on a conference call on Tuesday.

纽约（路透社）——独立电力公司 Talen Energy 高管在周二的电话会议上表示，该公司正在摆脱其加密货币采矿业务，专注于满足数据中心开发商不断增长的需求。

Talen is among a group of U.S. electric companies benefiting from the power needs of artificial intelligence and cloud computing data centers, with shares of the company rising nearly 100% since the start of the year.

Talen是受益于人工智能和云计算数据中心电力需求的一批美国电力公司之一，该公司股价自年初以来上涨了近100%。

Reuters reported this month that Talen was in a process to sell its bitcoin mining center at the site of a Pennsylvania nuclear power plant

路透社本月报道称，Talen 正在出售其位于宾夕法尼亚州核电站所在地的比特币挖矿中心

“It’s not a strategic asset for us and we are looking at what are the other alternatives with respect to coin,” Talen Energy Chief Executive Officer Mark McFarland said on a second-quarter earnings call.

“这对我们来说不是战略资产，我们正在研究代币的其他替代品，”塔伦能源首席执行官马克·麦克法兰在第二季度财报电话会议上表示。

Talen raised its earnings and free cash flow forecasts for the year as it benefits from higher power use and prices, bigger payments from the regional grid operator PJM and a payout for a data center sold to Amazon earlier this year.

Talen 上调了今年的盈利和自由现金流预测，因为该公司受益于更高的用电量和价格、地区电网运营商 PJM 的更多付款以及今年早些时候出售给亚马逊的数据中心的付款。
