NIIgazeconomika Backs Selling Power to Miners

NIIgazeconomika, a Gazprom subsidiary, is developing a tariff model for supplying electricity to external consumers. The project targets miners who can purchase surplus capacity. Researchers predict mutually beneficial contracts if BTC exceeds $90K.

A pilot launch indicates stable energy distribution reduces operational downtime. Meanwhile, Gazprom monetizes otherwise unsold generation without impacting its core supply commitments.

Participants highlight the need for transparent pricing to ensure success. Further progress hinges on negotiation outcomes with regional authorities.
