Soluna Holdings, Inc. (“Soluna” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SLNH), a developer of green data centers for intensive computing applications, including Bitcoin mining and AI, today announced that it has received ERCOT approval to begin the initial energizing and phased commissioning of Project Kati 1 on schedule.

Project Kati is Soluna’s 83 MW wind-powered data center campus in South Texas dedicated to Bitcoin mining. The energization will be split between Kati 1A, 48 MW, coming online in three phases and expected to be fully ramped by early Q2, and Kati 1B, 35 MW, following the three-phase approach and expected to be completed by the end of Q3. Kati 1B includes a 12 MW deployment with Cormint, where the company will design, procure, and deliver eight modular data center units to enable efficient deployment by minimizing on-site labor and accelerating energization timelines. Powered entirely by the Las Majadas wind energy project, Project Kati represents one of Soluna’s largest sites to date and is designed to scale efficiently to support large industrial compute workloads.

“This is a major milestone for project Kati 1, and a clear demonstration of our blueprint for Renewable Computing at scale,” said John Belizaire, CEO of Soluna. “Energization of this site represents an increase of more than 67 percent in our total capacity, expanding the number of customers we can serve with our signature Relentless Stewardship Bitcoin Hosting platform.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Target CEO Michael Fiddelke is reshuffling his leadership team and making other changes shortly after stepping into the top job at the retailer that has struggled operationally.

Rick Gomez, the 23-year Target veteran who oversees the chain's vast inventory of merchandise, will leave the company. And Jill Sando, the chief merchandising officer overseeing a handful of categories like apparel and home and who has been with the company since 1997, will retire.

Lisa Roath, who oversaw food, essentials and cosmetics, will take Fiddelke's previous job as chief operating officer, the company said Tuesday. Cara Sylvester, who had been chief guest experience officer, will become the company's chief merchandising officer.

The changes will allow Target to move with greater speed, Fiddelke said.

“It’s the start of a new chapter for Target, and we’re moving quickly to take action against our priorities that will drive growth within our business,” Fiddelke said in a release.

Gomez and Sando will remain with the company for a short time to help with the transition, but the changes become effective Sunday.

Also on Tuesday, the company reiterated its profit guidance. It is also increasing investment in store staffing at stores while eliminating about 500 jobs at distribution centers and regional offices, according to a memo sent to employees that Target shared with The Associated Press.

It is the first substantial change under Fiddelke, a 20-year company veteran who took over for Brian Cornell this month. The company's decision to choose an insider surprised many industry analysts who believe the company needs new ideas as it tries to revive sales.

Target has struggled to find its footing as many Americans have cut back on spending. Customers have also complained of disheveled stores that are missing the budget-priced niche that long ago earned the retailer the nickname “Tarzhay.”

The company has also been buffeted by consumer boycotts and backlash after it scaled back its corporate diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

It has also faced protests for what some critics see as an insufficient response to President Donald Trump's aggressive immigration enforcement tactics in Minneapolis, its hometown, where two U.S. citizens where fatally shot last month by federal agents.

Target has not commented publicly after federal agents detaining two of its employees this month — although Fiddelke sent a video message to the company’s 400,000 workers calling recent violence “incredibly painful."

Fiddelke was one of 60 CEOs of Minnesota-based companies who signed an open letter in January calling for state, local and federal officials to find a solution after the fatal shootings.
