Visiting a Solar Powered Altcoin Mining Farm in Costa Rica

in bitcoin •  8 years ago 

On a more detailed perspective, what is their consumption and generation of power? I assume they're going for far more efficient mining over raw hash rates, but the last estimate I saw on the amount of solar power needed to run a single mining rig that actually made a return was orders of magnitude more expensive than the mining would ever produce even with a growth at the level of bitcoin.

You ve right. It s pretty hard to get all that done with just "Solarpower". So we use also Geothermic Tech. and Carbonizing Reactors (Pyrolysis) to produce Carbon (Thats Bio Cole we can give back to the enviroment so wen can bring back Carbonoxide in to the earth) So we create a good solution to match also the Kyoto CO2 Agreements. The "waste" in this process is heat. steam engines (Turbine`s) will create the Power. Still a good time to work on.
We hav the challange to bring all that technical solutions together. We still searching engineers :-) and Programmers . Thank you

Better ask them yourself. I suppose they wouldn't do it, if it weren't economic.
