Marathon Digital decided to generate electricity using methane

Mining: Marathon Digital decided to generate electricity using methane

Marathon Digital, a leading company in the field of cryptocurrency mining, has recently launched a groundbreaking pilot project in the state of Utah, #USA.

The project aims to utilize methane, a byproduct of landfill waste, to generate electricity for their mining operations. This innovative approach not only addresses the issue of greenhouse gas emissions but also provides a sustainable source of energy for cryptocurrency mining.

To bring this project to life, Marathon Digital has partnered with Nodal Power, a renowned company specializing in renewable energy asset development and management. Together, they will initiate a test project with a capacity of 280 kilowatts (kW). If the results meet expectations, Marathon Digital will consider expanding their operations in this area.

"Our program is part of a broader initiative to explore the potential of capturing methane emissions from landfills. We will convert it into electricity, which will then be used to power our miners and facilitate BTC mining"stated representatives of Marathon Digital.

This is not the first time that companies have sought to produce electricity from alternative sources to address the challenges associated with greenhouse gas emissions. Last year, Vespene Energy, a startup, successfully raised funds for #BTC mining using a similar method.

"Methane, a naturally occurring greenhouse gas emitted from landfills, is one of the most dangerous. By harnessing its potential for electricity generation, we not only reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also create an additional energy source for cryptocurrency mining" highlighted Marathon Digital representatives.

The company also emphasized that this initiative will contribute to improving the environmental conditions in the region and reducing reliance on traditional energy sources.

Marathon Digital's pilot project in collaboration with Nodal Power marks another significant step towards the development of environmentally sustainable methods for #cryptocurrency mining. In recent times, more companies and investors have been focusing on the issue of environmental sustainability and seeking ways to minimize the negative impact of cryptocurrency mining on the environment.
