Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of October 18, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Synergy South Russellville Bitcoin Mining Facility in Russellville, Franklin County, Alabama appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Power and water
The site is leased from Russellville Electric Board at the south end of Jackson Avenue. Mining hardware is housed in storage containers.
Notes on the record
Operating mine on Jackson Avenue, Russellville, run by Synergy South; VoltCore was involved in developing it. Reported at 'less than 12 megawatts', because that is an upper bound rather than a stated figure, no capacity value is recorded. Cooling-fan noise is described but the rig cooling method is not identified, so the cooling type is left unset. Russellville's police chief reported no complaints filed. Coordinates are the Russellville place centroid: the source names only 'Jackson Avenue', and Nominatim returns two distinct Jackson Avenue segments (North and South) in the city, so a street-level pin could not be chosen without guessing.
What the record does not establish, and the document that would
In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.
- Power capacity in megawatts
- Cooling method and water use
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- Land area
- How the community has received it
Which document closes each gap
- Power capacity in megawatts
- The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
- Cooling method and water use
- The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
- Permanent jobs promised
- The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
- Land area
- The rezoning application, the plat, or the deed recorded with the county.
- How the community has received it
- Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
