According to TechFlow, Cointelegraph reported that Bitcoin Policy UK recently suggested to the newly-appointed Labour government that Bitcoin mining be used to solve local electricity demand problems. In a report released on July 10, the organization pointed out that Bitcoin mining can use idle renewable energy to provide fully flexible demand, making the power supply of renewable power grids more robust and feasible. The report also emphasized that Bitcoin mining does not require government subsidies or payments and can use any idle or wasted energy. Freddie New, co-founder of the organization, said that they look forward to working with the new government to promote the development of Bitcoin-related policies.

Bitcoin Policy UK is promoting this new strategy in light of the results of the UK general election on July 4. After coming to power, the new Labour government announced plans to establish a £7.3 billion ($9.3 billion) national wealth fund to support green industries. The local cryptocurrency community has called for more consistent cryptocurrency policies. Freddie New, co-founder and policy director of Bitcoin Policy UK, said they are taking this opportunity to advocate for good policies to "protect and safeguard" the rights of millions of British citizens who hold Bitcoin.
