As the industry has been developed exponentially, field has been expanded substantially at the same time. Consequently, immense energy consumption is inevitable for its . What directly triggers an intimate relation between the energy sources and ?
During the first generation of crypto industry, miners were able to receive with a great ease through CPU. However, miners desired the dominant-performance equipment like GPU or ASIC as the public interest increased. Thousands of equipment operations and their temperature management require a tremendous energy.
Is there any possible resolution for the energy issues? Here are some examples that we have tried to address this environmental problem.
Heating sources
The immense thermal energy resulted from rigs can be used as the heating sources. Last year, co-founder of Nakamoto X, Kamil Brejcha, successfully harvested tomato using excess heat of crypto for greenhouse temperature management. ‘Cryptomato (Crypto+Tomato)’ is the first case that recycled the energy into different source of industries.
This thermal energy can be applied not only for agricultural usage, but also for household heating. People can save the cost of house temperature management through rigs’ heat instead of gas heating or electric heating. French startup, Qarnot, released ‘QC-1’ which enables both crypto and household heating simultaneously. It directly connects to miner’s house and transmits rig’s heats into energy sources.
Its diverse trials can strongly alter the general energy sources in cold regions with future-developing equipment.
Cosmic energy into
Space industry is still underway in developing further stages; we can highly forecast that generating electricity through the solar heat. When the solar power generation is enabled, we can produce cost-effective electricity without any disturbance from the atmosphere.
Still is not taking the major portion of total electricity consumption, but a prospect toward in the space is highly potent. Even if it will consume the same amount of energy, the notoriety of crypto energy consumption would be subsided when electricity generation charges much less amount of capital.
Inevitably, will not be able to eliminate several negative respects about energy consumption. However, we have tried a variety of ways to recycle, regenerate, and economize the energy sources aside from the examples that we mentioned above. Based on the column from bitcoinist.com, we are able to reduce more than 70% of electric fee compared to the general usage of electricity. Therefore, an increasing number of people give an attention to trend of developing new schemes to make a solid settlement. Stay Tuned!
