Sarnecki, M. & Burke, N. (2026). "Bitcoin Mining as Supply-Side Flexibility in Irish Wind Energy Integration"
In 2024, EirGrid dispatched down 10.1% of Ireland's available wind. In 2025, 11.4%. That is clean power we could have generated but were not able to use.
Can a co-located Bitcoin miner turn some of it into revenue?
