By 2030, 70% renewable energy, Bitcoin mining edge for green dominance

According to a report published by the Mica Crypto Alliance Andh Data Analytics company, Nodiens, renewable energy can show more than 70% of the Bitcoin (BTC) mine by 2030.

The report emphasized that the change occurs when the miner prefers clean alternatives, such as wind, sun, hydro and waste energy.

The renewable energy use of the mining sector was 41%by the end of 2024, compared to 20%in 2011.

According to the report:

“The composition of renewable energy has been diversified over time. The sun and wind energy reached 6.07%and 10.86%of total energy consumption by 2024, respectively.”

On the other hand, the movement from fossil fuels is already affecting. The coal -based energy of Bitcoin mining dropped from 63%in 2011 to 20%in 2024.

Green energy

The report pointed out that economic incentives, energy trend changes and evolutionary climate policies form the industry’s pivot as renewable energy. These factors will further develop the adoption that can be played for the next five years.

Daniel Batten, a bitcoin climate analyst, also emphasized a research institute that supports this trend. Of the 18 colleagical review studies of Bitcoin and Energy, published since 2023, 16 found that mining has made a positive contribution to climate efforts and supports global clean energy goals.

Batten also pointed out that mining work could help to balance the electrical grid and to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy.

Some mining companies are actively leading this shift. BTC DIGITAL is one of the early adapters that integrate green energy into operation.

At the same time, countries such as Ethiopia and Bhutan are attracting attention. In 2024, Ethiopia has earned about $ 1 billion from Bitcoin mining using surplus electricity generated by the Grand Renaissance Dam, a major hydroelectric power plant.
