विश्लेषक का कहना है कि ड्यूक एनर्जी कॉर्पोरेशन अध्ययन कर रहा है Bitcoin मांग प्रतिक्रिया पर लागू खनन
ड्यूक एनर्जी कॉरपोरेशन के प्रमुख दरों और नियामक रणनीति विश्लेषक के अनुसार, दूसरा सबसे बड़ा अमेरिकी ऊर्जा निगम वर्तमान में अध्ययन कर रहा है bitcoin mining. Lead analyst Justin Orkney said that a bitcoin demand response (DR) study was being worked on and the energy firm is partnered with bitcoin miners that are enrolled in Duke’s DR programs.
The Second Largest U.S. Energy Corporation Is Researching Bitcoin खनिज
सबसे नया "Bitcoin, Energy and the Environment” podcast with Troy Cross, called “Duke Energy is studying bitcoin,” features Justin Orkney, the lead rates and regulatory strategy analyst at the energy corporation. In the episode, Orkney and the podcast host discuss “bitcoin’s utility” and “really interesting opportunities” that pertain to energy demand response programs.
Basically, DR gives energy consumers the ability to operate the grid more efficiently by reducing or shifting loads. For instance, with bitcoin mining, by being able to “strategically locate miners on the system — There’s an opportunity to partner with these types of customers,” Orkney said. While a majority of the conversation details Orkney’s background in Solar and pilot studies on demand response, the analyst notes how bitcoin mining could be a powerful technology when it comes to DR components.
साक्षात्कार के दौरान, ओर्कनेय ने जोर देकर कहा कि कुछ ड्यूक एनर्जी का (एनवाईएसई: DUK) customers were bitcoin miners. “We do have existing customers on our system,” Orkney explained to the show’s host. “They are voluntarily enrolled in our demand response programs. Those consist of basically agreeing to curtail usage at particular hours of the year when we call events.”
'Bitcoin Mining Appears to Be That Really Powerful Demand Response Technology’
In the U.S., most of the infrastructure such as transformers and transmission lines are more than two decades old. DR programs can allow grid customers, some of which can be bitcoin miners, to help the utilities manage peak demand. Insufficient transmission capacity can be managed more effectively in order to make old infrastructure more reliable. Orkney said that it’s possible that bitcoin mining could be a technologically advanced DR method.
"Bitcoin mining appears to be that really powerful demand response technology where they can be humming at a 100% power factor, or using the same amount of electricity all day long which is called flatline, and then within a matter of minutes they can decrease their usage at kind of a pinpoint precision level and hold it for however long they want to and then bring it right back up,” Orkney said.
Bitcoin mining has received a lot of नकारात्मक ध्यान उद्योग के विषय में पिछले वर्ष के दौरान ऊर्जा का उपयोग नेटवर्क के रूप में कथित तौर पर consumes 91 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. However, a number of bitcoin believe concerns about BTCजब खनन की बात आती है तो ऊर्जा की खपत अधिक हो जाती है। इसके अलावा, हाल ही में प्रकाशित एक अध्ययन पता चलता है कि Bitcoin network leverages 50 times less energy than the traditional banking system.
इसके अलावा, पर्यावरण, सामाजिक और शासन (ईएसजी) विश्लेषक, डेनियल बैटन ने प्रकाशित किया रिपोर्ट जो इंगित करता है bitcoin mining could potentially eliminate a significant amount of leaked methane and stressed that no technology could do it better. Batten’s study shows that Bitcoin could strategically eliminate 0.15% of global CO2-eq emissions by 2045.
उत्तरी कैरोलिना के शार्लोट में स्थित, ड्यूक मोटे तौर पर ऊर्जा वितरित करता है 7.5 लाख इलेक्ट्रिक रिटेल ग्राहक और छह राज्यों में काम करता है। अमेरिकी बिजली और प्राकृतिक गैस होल्डिंग कंपनी 58,200 मेगावाट बिजली का प्रबंधन करती है और ओर्कने बताते हैं कि ड्यूक दूसरा सबसे बड़ा अमेरिकी ऊर्जा निगम है, यदि विशिष्ट क्षेत्रों में सबसे बड़ा नहीं है।
ड्यूक एनर्जी कॉरपोरेशन के अलावा, रिपोर्टों से पता चला है कि ऊर्जा और गैस दिग्गज पसंद करते हैं एक्सॉन मोबिल (एनवाईएसई: XOM), Equinor, ला जियो, तथा कोनोकोफिलिप्स पता लगाया है bitcoin mining solutions in the energy industry as well.
