RE: ESP-ENG Bitcoin: un desastre energético. | Bitcoin: an energy disaster.

[English-Ingles] The problem is real but the solutions that can correct it are blocked by the same global interests that have the planet submerged in an environmental disaster, the best solution for the energy problem of bitcoin is to rethink energy sources (especially green energy ). A more than real solution to the problem would be to stop treating wind energy and wind farms as small test plants and make a massive implementation of this energy, its main weakness and argument against it is the instability in the supply due to the variability of the wind its power source and the lack of an electricity storage technology that does not become a headache in terms of costs and the enormous energy losses in the conversions for charging and discharging the problematic batteries. This is where bitcoin can be the solution to the problem, since bitcoin miners could be configured to operate in the range where wind farms fluctuate in their energy output, (rotating off miners when wind power is insufficient and activating mining when there is excess renewable energy production. Another aspect to consider is that when making a massive implementation there will be regions in which the drop in wind flow in the sector is compensated by the excess wind generation in another geographical area, absorbing and canceling good part of the fluctuations that make wind power unattractive (currently this is compensated either with batteries or with thermal power plants that act as compensators, generating the energy that the wind farm stops producing due to lack of wind or reducing its thermal generation when the wind farm generates energy at full capacity due to abundance of wind) the Wind-thermal solution is the most used today to solve the problem, with the undesired consequence that thermal generators pollute more when operating at half load because energy efficiency is more optical almost at full power capacity and operating it for these cases at half load or less just to compensate for the floating in the wind generates much more pollution per Kw / h generated. With this possible solution, the thermal generators would be replaced by the miners in their role as compensators of the electrical supply, changing 180 degrees the optics and the way of thinking to solve the problem, since the electrical load in the generation would no longer be compensated to pass to offset in electricity consumption. This perspective requires a massive implementation of the proposal since this would mean that the base load that could be generated by wind generation could be enormous, having in practice, due to its massive implementation, up to 3 interacting electrical fluctuation compensators. The first layer of energy compensation would be in consumption using the network of miners present in the country or countries that implement this idea, the second layer of compensation would be the geographical spread of wind farms, the wind never stops in its entirety over the entire surface of an entire country and generally when the wind decreases in one region, it increases in another (our integrated and self-regulating planet is the best example of a hyper-massive automatic cascade control system that works) and the third layer of compensation at the generation level would be the installations pre-existing thermoelectric, hydroelectric (and nuclear in countries where they have nuclear power plants) nuclear) this would allow a massive implementation of renewable energies since it would solve their Achilles' heel (their inconstancy and fluctuation) it can also be implemented with solar energy, making the wind-solar combination more viable for profitable and attractive implementation to those who risk making the investments to carry out this complex and complete project.✍️
