Manitoba Halts New Crypto Mining Projects Due to Expected High Energy Demand
Authorities in Manitoba are temporarily suspending the connection of new crypto mining facilities to the power grid. The Canadian province, which relies heavily on hydroelectric generation and attracts miners with low electricity rates, fears it may face overwhelming energy demand.
The government of Manitoba is halting new connections of crypto mining centers to the province’s hydroelectric grid, the Canadian press reported. Officials explain the move with the potential for increasing energy demand that the region may not be able to meet. The suspension, imposed for a period of 18 months, will not affect the 37 currently active mining operations.
