Bitcoin mining and grid stabilization

Bitcoin mining can play a role in grid stabilization by adjusting mining operations during times of high electricity demand. This helps ensure that essential services like hospitals have access to electricity. Additionally, Bitcoin mining can provide a solution to the volatility caused by renewable energy sources by offsetting fluctuations in electricity supply.
