Bitcoin miners act as the grid’s shock absorbers, buying stranded renewable energy that can’t reach the market. By converting surplus solar and wind into digital gold, they unlock power sources otherwise lost to curtailment. At $83,594, mining profit margins make this energy arbitrage more efficient than ever. Where does your local grid struggle with excess capacity?
