NRG Bloom team on-site in Nigeria with gas flare
Company & Team

Global Team. Frontier Operations.
Institutional Discipline.

NRG Bloom was founded in Quebec, Canada in 2023. We've been operational in Nigeria since February 2025, building compute infrastructure on stranded energy that most companies won't touch.

Our Story

Born in Canada. Built for the Frontier.

NRG Bloom was founded by Makir Volcy in 2023 with a simple thesis: the world's most wasted energy sources are also its greatest compute opportunities. Within months, the team deployed its first container of ASIC miners at Ogboinbiri, Bayelsa State, Nigeria, powered by associated gas under a community based power purchase agreement.

13+ months later, NRG Bloom operates 1.5 MW of compute capacity with 5 MW under development. The team is now expanding to Kenya and Colombia while building out the technology stack (NEXUS and Flare Intelligence) that makes this model repeatable at scale.
