比特幣挖礦穩定了因人工智慧資料中心而緊張的電網

Lumerin 聯合創始人 Ryan Condron 表示，比特幣礦工有助於擴大再生能源的使用並平衡能源網路。

Bitcoin miners are helping to expand the use of renewable energy and stabilize energy networks, according to Ryan Condron, co-founder of Lumerin.

Lumerin 聯合創始人 Ryan Condron 表示，比特幣礦工正在幫助擴大再生能源的使用並穩定能源網路。

In an opinion piece for CoinDesk, Condron highlighted the increasing demand for AI data centers, which put a strain on power grids due to their vast electricity consumption.

在 CoinDesk 的一篇評論文章中，Condron 強調了對人工智慧資料中心不斷增長的需求，由於其龐大的電力消耗給電網帶來了壓力。

However, Bitcoin miners, on the other hand, can quickly adjust their power usage to help balance the grid, especially during periods of high or low electricity demand. This makes Bitcoin mining a scalable and economically feasible variable load solution for renewable energy integration.

然而，另一方面，比特幣礦工可以快速調整其用電量以幫助平衡電網，特別是在電力需求高或低的時期。這使得比特幣挖礦成為再生能源整合的可擴展且經濟可行的可變負載解決方案。

Condon noted that states like Oklahoma are embracing this model by encouraging Bitcoin mining and its power grid benefits, with a recent bill aiming to exempt sales of machinery and equipment used for commercial mining from sales tax if the miner provides an adjustable load to the local power producer.

康登指出，像俄克拉荷馬州這樣的州正在通過鼓勵比特幣挖礦及其電網效益來接受這種模式，最近的一項法案旨在如果礦商為當地電力提供可調負載，則可以免除用於商業採礦的機械和設備銷售的銷售稅製片人。

He also pointed out that Bitcoin miners are playing a role in Texas, Scandinavia, and Iceland, where they are consuming excess electricity generated from wind energy during off-peak hours, stabilizing the power grid and preventing disruptions.

他還指出，比特幣礦工在德克薩斯州、斯堪的納維亞半島和冰島發揮作用，他們在非高峰時段消耗風能產生的多餘電力，穩定電網並防止中斷。

In conclusion, Condron stated that Bitcoin miners are helping to make renewable energy projects more financially viable by providing a constant and predictable demand for lower-cost electricity from wind and solar farms.

總之，康德倫表示，比特幣礦商透過為風能和太陽能發電廠提供持續且可預測的低成本電力需求，幫助使再生能源專案在財務上更加可行。
