Interested in purchasing renewable energy for mining?

Hey, I’m not a miner but I co-own a solar farm that produces over 25 MW annually. Just curious if there's interest in buying this power for mining. I’m not an expert, but I feel like having access to this energy could be a real advantage. No fiber optics on-site, but we’re only about 2 km from the nearest line. Serious inquiries can hit me up at my email.

That’s a vague figure you threw out there. As a part owner, you should know the key details like: What’s your actual output in watts or kilowatts, not just some yearly total? You need the daily numbers to really assess anything. Is this connected to the grid for 24/7 mining, or what?

Lol, no way anyone has a 25 MW solar farm and just drops a gmail on here for their first post. Sounds more like a backyard setup at best. Maybe a 12 kW system that anyone can throw up at home for a decent price.

Let’s assume he just forgot to mention ‘hour’ in his post. That makes it 25 MWh a year, or about 68.5 kWh daily. So we’re looking at around a 13.7 kW solar system with an average of 5 hours of sunlight. If he’s really claiming 25 MW, then that’s just not believable.

Exactly, if it’s 25 MWh/year, that’s basically typical home system size. 12-14 kW output isn’t gonna do much for miners at all.

I got curious about that email, and the first thing I found was a Reddit thread about this 25 MW solar farm. Seriously, how does he expect us to believe that? Anyone producing that much wouldn’t be making such basic mistakes.

I’ve got a 100 kW array that runs well in full sun. That’s 500 kW daily with our average sun hours. 500 panels, 220 watts each on an acre. So if he claims 175 GWh/year, that would mean he’s got a massive operation. I doubt anyone has a 35,000-acre array.

Yeah, there are bigger setups than that. Like, a 50 MW farm on 248 acres was built in China. Just saying, it’s possible but not common.

honestly, miners and businesses just want cheap energy. Green energy might save cash in the long run, but if it’s expensive, who’s gonna buy it just because it’s green?

True, but it’s kind of sad. Wealth doesn’t mean much if we ruin our environment. What’s the point?

Can you provide more about the price and location?

Don’t forget the banks that have been profiting for ages off traditional energy sources.

Using solar panels for mining will definitely cut costs. With your power access, you could boost your income significantly compared to other miners. Plus, you could attract new miners to your solar site.
