With the help of renewable energy running a mining rig is still the dream of many miners. Yeah, I was one of them, I have gone through some of the blogs which gave me ideas about solar panels and energy.
First of all, this solar energy is 100% clean but it is not much comfortable as the electric board. We need a huge infrastructure setup which may not be suitable for our planning area as we miners consume 1KW/hr it requires huge panels and huge investment on it. The efficiency of the solar panels is always around 80% of the rated value and they cost more. But I am not saying it was impossible to use solar energy for mining but it has many limitations that's my point here.
But it was a good to plan to implement solar energy to energize our home and keep our rooftop cool by preventing direct sunlight. I have read many articles saying it was good to move on to 100% renewable energy but it has numerous complexity such as we have no time to plan and set up those at our home. And it will nearly cost us to build another new house 😂 then which family members will support your idea? Am sure no one.
Next month I was planning to make a small DIY project on a solar panels with the help of YouTube and blog reference to build a fan to cool miners. Let's see how we can make it work. Let me know if you have any useful info in the comment. I will share my complete sketch about it on my upcoming blog 😁. When it works fine will do bigger and implement this energy in miners too.
