FingerMotion Inc. (NASDAQ: FNGR) has entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Lyken AI Computing Inc., operating as Lyken.AI, and BlueFlare Energy Solutions Inc. to establish a preferred, non-exclusive framework for matching enterprise artificial intelligence and high-performance computing demand with potential modular behind-the-meter capacity evaluated or developed under FingerMotion’s existing BlueFlare alliance. The agreement, announced via a press release, outlines a collaborative approach to addressing the growing energy needs of AI and HPC operations in Western Canada.
The framework initially focuses on Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan, regions with significant natural gas resources and midstream infrastructure. Under the contemplated structure, FingerMotion would serve as owner-operator and project sponsor, BlueFlare would act as the Western Canadian development partner, and Lyken would provide the customer-facing demand and managed-services layer. This division of roles aims to streamline the development of modular BTM generation projects that can be deployed closer to end-users, potentially reducing transmission bottlenecks and improving energy reliability for compute-intensive applications.
FingerMotion said its BlueFlare relationship has progressed from a single-project discussion to a multi-site development program. The company is also in discussions with multiple natural gas suppliers and midstream counterparties regarding potential firm supply arrangements for planned BTM generation. These discussions suggest a strategic effort to secure long-term fuel supply, which is critical for the economic viability of behind-the-meter power projects.
However, the MOU is non-binding, and no definitive gas supply agreement, capacity commitment, customer contract, project financing or expected revenue has been established. Each project will be evaluated individually and remains subject to financing, site control, supply, customer commitments, regulatory approvals and other conditions. This means that while the framework signals intent, actual projects may not materialize, and timelines are uncertain.
For readers in Halifax and Atlantic Canada, this development may seem geographically distant, but it carries broader implications. The AI and HPC sector is energy-intensive, and the ability to secure modular, behind-the-meter power could influence where data centers and compute facilities are located. If successful, the model could be replicated in other regions, including Atlantic Canada, where similar energy and infrastructure considerations exist. The involvement of FingerMotion, a NASDAQ-listed technology company with core competencies in mobile payment and recharge platforms in China, also highlights cross-sector interest in energy solutions for AI.

The MOU represents an early-stage effort to align energy supply with the demands of AI and HPC. While no binding commitments exist, the collaboration could pave the way for innovative energy solutions that support the growth of digital infrastructure in Western Canada and potentially beyond. For businesses and communities in Halifax and surrounding areas, it underscores the increasing intersection of energy and technology, and the importance of adaptable power strategies in an era of rising compute demand.
