I'm out of ideas and need some help here. Based in Canada, looking for power under 5 cents per kWh for 1-30 MW, without needing to bribe anyone. Seems like upgrades are already pricey enough.

Not limited to Canada, as long as the price is decent.

Honestly, try finding a mining operation going under and take over. Sub 5 cents is tough to find now after the gas market took a dive. Good luck finding warehouses for rent to fit 1 MW. It's like searching for a unicorn.

I’ve got 400 amps at 480 volts available at 4.3 cents, mostly hydro and wind. Just a connex box to set it up, though. Located in NE Oklahoma.

Currently filling a 300AMP mining setup, staying residential keeps the bill at 0.0595 per kWh. No solar or wind yet, but both are options for scaling.

We can pull an average of 4-5 cents per kWh at my place. Looking for funds or partners to expand in a few spots. We’ve got some flare gas options too. Just hard to promise fixed rates due to too many variables.

Just created a thread on this too! We can supply 1 to 200 MW in Alberta. We’re working on a project providing sales-quality gas to power generators on-site. PM me.

Did you know Alaska has some methane lakes? You could set up a floatable device to capture it and run a diesel generator. Challenges are there though... permits, logistics, all that.

But the thing is, a few cents won't cover the generator and maintenance costs, even with free fuel. You need something already built, like a dam or a gas plant.

If you’re open to it, Libya has the cheapest grid electricity in the world.

There are a few strategies to consider: 1. Buy mining rigs like antminer S19 Pro. 2. Set up Masternodes. 3. Pool resources with friends.
