Yesterday, on 21th may I went at Politecnico of Torino in order to see the interview of Janet Maingi, co-founder of Gridless and her short film about the relationship between Africa and electricity.
Gridless is a #Bitcoin #mining farm that uses green power (hydro, geothermal, biomass) produced by local companies and insuring energy to nearest rural villages.
It is a win-win-win experience driven by #Bitcoin. Gridless makes money with mining, local companies have a constant load, rural villages and people take advantage of electricity.
