Hydro power to Bitcoin

Project Description for Partnership & Government Stakeholders

The proposed initiative aims to rehabilitate and expand an existing hydropower facility in Gudauta, Abkhazia, transforming it into a strategic 10 MW renewable energy asset that will serve as the foundation for a high-value cryptocurrency mining operation. Through a partnership between Royal Technology LLC (UAE) and LIO LLC, the project will modernize the plant using updated hydroelectric technologies, increasing output from its current 5 MW to a fully operational 10 MW capacity.

This development presents a unique energy-to-digital-value opportunity: by utilizing stranded or underused hydropower resources, the project converts clean, low-cost electricity into profitable blockchain-based assets. Such an approach reduces dependence on the regional grid, insulates operations from energy price fluctuations, and aligns with global trends favoring sustainable, high-efficiency mining infrastructure.

Phase 1 will dedicate 5 MW to powering approximately 1,250 modern mining units, generating an estimated $1.125 million in net income per active month and enabling a projected two-year return on investment. Phase 2 provides optional scalability to the full 10 MW or alternative revenue models through supplementary power sales. With a total required investment of $20.56 million, the project demonstrates strong financial fundamentals and long-term viability.

For government stakeholders, the initiative contributes to regional economic development, supports renewable energy infrastructure modernization, and positions Gudauta as a hub for technology-driven investment. It encourages job creation, enhances local technical capabilities, and ensures that economic growth is aligned with environmentally responsible energy practices.

For Partners, the project offers entry into a rapidly expanding global market with growing demand for green, cost-efficient mining capacity. By combining renewable power generation with scalable digital asset production, the project provides a stable, future-oriented investment opportunity with high growth potential and robust risk mitigation.
