The Bitcoin Mining Council (BMC) has announced substantial progress in sustainable energy adoption and operational efficiency in Bitcoin mining during H1 2023. BMC’s hash rate surged from 24 EH in early 2022 to an impressive 158 EH in Q2 2023, marking a 70% YoY increase. This growth solidifies BMC’s position with a 43.4% share of the global Bitcoin Mining Network. With a sustainable power mix of 63.1%, BMC members contribute to the industry’s overall sustainable energy at 59.9%. The BMC also enhances the Bitcoin network’s efficiency, achieving a 24% YoY efficiency boost. During H1 2023, 2.5 GW of Bitcoin mining operations curtailed, releasing 815 GWh of energy into local grids, mainly in North America. Notable members of the BMC include Argo Blockchain, BitDeer, Bitfarms, and more.

Green Energy Company Raises $13M for Landfill Energy Transformation

A green energy company secures $13 million in funding to transform landfill methane into renewable energy, catering to the needs of modern data centers. The funds have been allocated to operate two US power plants – one supplying electricity to the grid along with a data center, and the other housing an off-grid Bitcoin mining facility fueled by landfill gas. The company’s innovative technology not only addresses methane emissions but also plays a crucial role in reducing carbon footprint while effectively utilizing waste for energy production. CEO Bryan Black underscores the company’s contribution to local energy markets and its efforts in curbing greenhouse gas emissions.
