Title: Mining bitcoins requirements
Post by: youssefdaoud on September 04, 2017, 08:59:16 AM
Hi every one, I understand that mining bitcoins require a lot of energy.
What do you think about creating a mining farm using solar energy in a country where it's sunny all the time.
What should be required? Please let me know, I have a good idea and chance to start that.

Thanks  :)

If you're aiming for 24/7 uptime, you'll need batteries to store energy. Keep in mind there's no sun at night or clouds could pass by.
This makes the infrastructure around your miners complicated and probably hurts your profitability.

Basics for mining include:
1. Internet connection
2. Power supply (it's more complicated in your case)
3. Miners
4. Space
5. Decent cooling

Solar is good to replace low energy use cases; miners are high energy usage and would require a lot of solar equipment and batteries that would have a very long ROI over paying energy bills and negotiating lower prices with your provider. If you had a solar installation for some other purpose, mining would be a great way to use up any excess capacity.
