Kazakhstan is experiencing a power shortage due to cryptocurrency mining, which will limit the power consumption of existing mining companies in the short term

According to news from the chain, according to Bitcoin.com, Kazakhstan is facing a power shortage, and cryptocurrency mining is the main reason for this phenomenon. The country’s demand for electricity in 2021 will increase by 7% year-on-year. Energy Minister MagzumMirzagaliev stated that this is a very large increase, mainly due to the fact that more and more data centers are engaged in cryptocurrency mining. In addition, he mentioned the need to ensure Power system operators limit the power consumption of these data centers when there may be power shortages. At present, the country’s energy department has prepared a series of proposals to solve the power shortage, including limiting the power use of existing mining data centers and suspending the connection of new cryptocurrency mines to the grid. In addition, the country is also preparing to increase power production and plans to build a power plant with an installed capacity of 3,000 megawatts in the next five years.
