CoinVoice has recently learned that, according to Jinshi reports, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Novak has instructed the Russian Ministry of Energy, system operators, and the market committee to conduct a systematic analysis of the reasons for the increase in energy consumption in various regions of Russia.
"It is necessary to understand which regions are growing due to cryptocurrency mining and which regions are growing due to economic and industrial growth. In areas where electricity growth is related to mining, high-profit enterprises may build their own power generation facilities for their own needs," Novak said. He stated that this analysis will affect the implementation of the new energy capacity construction plan. [Original link]
