P-01
Volatile output
Renewables generate on nature’s schedule, not the market’s. Output swings faster than demand can follow, leaving clean electricity with nowhere to go at the very moments it is most abundant.
Grid-scale flexible load
Stranded energy, put to work.
We station mobile, grid-interactive compute rigs at renewable energy sites — absorbing the surplus electricity producers would otherwise curtail and converting it into low-cost, low-carbon computational power.

The problem · P-series
Clean energy is being thrown away.
Wind and solar now set the pace of Europe’s grid — but their output follows the weather, not demand. When production peaks and the grid can’t absorb more, producers are told to switch off. The industry calls it curtailment, and it grows with every renewable megawatt installed.
P-02
A harder balancing act
System operators must hold supply and demand in constant balance. The higher the share of intermittent generation, the harder — and more expensive — that act becomes.
P-03
Idle reserve capacity
Every added megawatt of intermittent generation calls for more standby reserves — assets that cost money while spending most of their life waiting.
P-04
Squeezed project returns
Curtailed output and negative-price hours erode producer revenue, discouraging exactly the investment the energy transition depends on.
Curtailment is clean electricity that was financed, built, and ready to flow — then deliberately not produced. Every year, Europe wastes terawatt-hours of it.
Dispatch options · S-series
A power plant has three textbook ways to handle the energy it produces:
S-01
Sell
to the grid — when there is demand and the price is right.
S-02
Store
in batteries or hydrogen — when the economics of storage pencil out.
S-03
Accept
the idle capacity and switch off — when neither of the above does.
The fourth solution
Convert
Monetize surplus electricity by transforming it into a different commodity — computational power. EcoRig’s rigs consume energy precisely when it is abundant and cheap, turning would-be losses into a second revenue stream and compute into the export product.
Computational power is the scarce commodity of the decade — for AI workloads, settlement networks, and research that demand immense resources. Supply it from energy that had no buyer, and both markets win.
Mission · M-series
Recycle the surplus. Balance the grid.
Our mission is to transform excess renewable electricity into valuable computational power — recycling what would otherwise be wasted, while giving the grid the flexible load it needs.
M-01
Structurally cheaper compute
We run on electricity the market has already priced at or near zero — a cost advantage no conventional data center can engineer.
M-02
Minimal carbon footprint
Every kilowatt-hour we consume is verified surplus from renewable generation. Compute output, without the emissions bill.
M-03
A buffer for the grid
Our consumption ramps with production peaks and steps aside within seconds when the grid needs the power back — dispatchable demand, on call.
M-04
Producers paid in full
Sites monetize every megawatt-hour they can generate, strengthening project economics and the case for the next renewable installation.
We believe in giving back to the communities we operate in — EcoRig pledges up to 10% of annual profits to local social causes.
Producer terms · What you gain
Eight lines on the nameplate.
Partnering with EcoRig is a supply agreement, not a construction project. Our rigs arrive, connect behind the meter, and start converting your surplus — on these terms.
CUR-01
Curtailment reduction
Excess capacity becomes billable output. We consume on-site, behind the meter, so peak production gets used instead of switched off.
FLX-02
Load flexibility
Our consumption profile adjusts to your production curve in real time — a flexible load that helps balance supply and demand.
GRD-03
Grid stability
Dispatchable demand for renewable energy that supports system balance and eases congestion at the connection point.
REV-04
Predictable revenue
A programmable offtake profile supports long-term supply agreements with revenue producers can actually plan on.
CO2-05
Carbon credits
Optional carbon-credit structuring adds a further revenue stream on top of the energy sale itself.
CST-06
Lower system costs
On-site consumption cuts transmission losses and defers spending on distribution infrastructure.
INV-07
Stronger project cases
Higher realized output per installed megawatt improves project returns — and the argument for the next installation.
INN-08
Energy-management R&D
A hands-on partner for piloting new approaches to energy capture, storage, and utilization.

Protocol · FAQ
Asked before signing.
What is renewable energy curtailment?
Curtailment is the deliberate reduction of a wind or solar plant’s output below what it could produce — usually because the grid cannot absorb the surplus at that moment. The energy is clean and already paid for in capacity, yet simply not generated. EcoRig gives that surplus a productive destination instead.
How does EcoRig reduce curtailment for producers?
We deploy containerized compute rigs directly at generation sites. When output exceeds demand or export limits, the rigs consume the surplus behind the meter and convert it into computational power that is sold as a separate commodity.
What happens when the grid needs the power back?
Our load is fully interruptible. Rigs ramp down within seconds on the producer’s dispatch signal or automated price and frequency triggers — the site’s primary business always comes first.
What kind of computing do the rigs run?
High-density workloads that tolerate a flexible duty cycle: AI and research computation, settlement networks, and other batch-style jobs where the cost of energy dominates the economics.
Do producers need to invest in hardware?
No. EcoRig owns, deploys, and operates the rigs. Producers provide surplus energy and a connection point; we share the value the compute creates.
Which sites are a good fit?
Wind and solar parks with regular curtailment or negative-price exposure, constrained grid connections, or capacity held behind export limits. If your site regularly produces more than it can sell, it qualifies for a conversation.
