The American company Hilcorp is starting a pilot bitcoin mining project in the North Slope region of Alaska. The mining center will be located at the base of the Endicott oil field, where residual gas will be used to power the equipment. This innovative solution involves the efficient use of energy resources that are usually released into the atmosphere or burned.
The project is aimed at testing the possibilities of mining in extreme Arctic conditions, as well as at demonstrating the potential of environmentally conscious mining. The use of residual energy resources allows to reduce the carbon footprint and can become a model for the implementation of similar initiatives in the future.
Hilcorp plans to assess the economic feasibility and technical viability of such a mining approach. If the experiment is successful, it could attract the attention of other energy companies to similar projects, combining traditional industries with modern blockchain technologies
