Marathon Digital has announced a new partnership with the Kenyan government to develop renewable energy infrastructure, making Kenya a hub for green Bitcoin mining.
Marathon Digital and Kenya Partnership
Marathon Digital, a leader in innovative energy solutions, has announced a collaboration with the Kenyan government. The aim is to develop renewable energy infrastructure for cryptocurrency mining, using methane and other eco-friendly energy sources.
Innovative Energy Solutions
Earlier in 2023, Marathon Digital began mining Bitcoin using methane through a collaboration with Nodal Power in Utah. The new partnership with Kenya aims to scale these efforts and ensure long-term environmental sustainability.
Future Prospects
The initial phase of the project will involve creating a 280-kilowatt methane-powered mining facility. This facility will help reduce methane emissions and provide a reliable, renewable energy source for Marathon Digital's operations. The Kenyan government hopes that this partnership will encourage more similar initiatives, strengthening the country's energy sector and making it a significant player in green technology.
The new partnership between Marathon Digital and Kenya represents a significant step towards sustainable cryptocurrency mining and the development of renewable energy on a global scale.
