A group of French lawmakers has proposed using Bitcoin mining to address the country’s persistent electricity surplus, particularly from nuclear sources. The proposal, submitted to the National Assembly, highlights Bitcoin mining’s ability to act as a flexible energy consumer, absorbing excess power and reducing waste. Lawmakers argue this could stabilize energy markets, repurpose old industrial sites, and support France’s decarbonization efforts. The initiative mirrors global trends, with countries like Belarus and Pakistan also exploring Bitcoin mining for energy optimization. Experts suggest this approach could enhance grid stability and create new economic opportunities while aligning with clean energy goals.
