<a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/bitfarms-set-to-boost-mining-capacity-with-quebec-expansion/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitfarms</a> Ltd., a notable player in global Bitcoin mining, has recently shared a comprehensive update on its production and operations for April 2024.&nbsp; according to <a href="https://investor.bitfarms.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/238/bitfarms-provides-april-2024-production-and-operations" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitfarms</a>.
During April, Bitfarms mined 269 BTC, slightly lower than the 286 BTC mined in March, due to the recent BTC Halving and a 5.9% increase in network difficulty. Despite these challenges, Bitfarms has made substantial progress in upgrading its fleet. In Quebec, the company completed upgrades at two sites with <a href="https://ultramining.com/en/manufacturers/bitmain/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitmain</a> T21 miners, enhancing energy efficiency by an impressive 51% at these locations and by 9% across the company.
The fleet upgrade is part of a broader initiative to achieve a target of 21 EH/s and 21 w/TH in 2024. The Paso Pe site is pivotal to this plan, with full site energization scheduled for May, which is expected to contribute approximately 2 EH/s at 23 w/TH.
Furthermore, Bitfarms secured a favorable outcome in a VAT case in Québec, obtaining a $23.7 million tax refund. This decision will reduce Canadian <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/minnesota-man-faces-accusations-of-electricity-theft-for-bitcoin-mining/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">electricity</a> costs and capital expenditures by 15%, offering both immediate financial relief and long-term operational savings.
Looking ahead, Bitfarms remains on track to reach its mid-year target of 12 EH/s and 25 w/TH by Q2 2024, with ongoing installations and upgrades across various sites. The company's strategic developments underscore its commitment to optimizing operational efficiency and enhancing shareholder value through innovative mining solutions and fiscal prudence.
