比特幣礦機廢熱助加拿大溫室種番茄




比特幣礦機利用計算產生的熱能助力加拿大溫室種植

硬件製造商兼比特幣礦工Canaan持續推動將能源再利用於商業及消費用途,最新計劃是在加拿大利用礦機運算時產生的熱能,為溫室提供輔助加熱。

Canaan於週二宣布,將與Bitforest Investment合作,在加拿大曼尼托巴省展開一項3兆瓦(MW)計算熱能回收的概念驗證項目,目標是「從Avalon計算系統回收熱量,作為溫室運作的輔助熱源」。

該試點計劃預計運行24個月,將利用Canaan的液冷系統捕捉熱能,預熱溫室的進水,從而減少所需的能源消耗。

Canaan董事長兼CEO張南耕表示:「透過這個概念驗證,我們不只是為一個項目部署計算設備,而是希望打造一個數據驅動且可複製的模型。這個計劃將讓我們能夠測量、建模並擴大在寒冷氣候下農業熱能回收的規模……這個概念驗證擴展了我們更廣泛的努力,重新思考計算基礎設施如何提升家庭、企業及工業夥伴的能源可持續性。」

此舉將使Canaan能夠通過回收計算伺服器所產生的熱能,為Bitforest的溫室提供輔助熱源,減少對化石燃料鍋爐的依賴。Canaan計劃部署一套包含360台液冷伺服器的計算系統。Bitforest在曼尼托巴的業務包括番茄種植。

礦工轉向綠色能源與節能方案

Canaan早前於9月宣布在德州一個風力發電場啟動礦場,但這並非唯一尋求綠色能源降低成本的比特幣礦工。

11月,礦業及數字基建公司Phoenix Group宣布在衣索比亞啟用一個30兆瓦的水力發電礦場;另一比特幣礦工Sangha Renewables則在德州推出20兆瓦的太陽能礦場。

比特幣挖礦難度在2025年達到歷史新高,9月急升後10月市場崩盤令價格下跌,挖礦難度預計本月將再度攀升。根據CoinWarz數據,發稿時比特幣挖礦難度約為148.2兆。

評論與啟示

Canaan這次將比特幣礦機產生的廢熱用於溫室加熱的嘗試,展示了加密貨幣挖礦行業在能源利用上的創新思維。過去礦機的高能耗常被詬病為浪費資源,甚至對環境造成負擔,但透過這種「熱能回收」的方式,不但提升了能源使用效率,也為寒冷地區的農業提供了可持續的熱源解決方案。

這種跨界整合科技與農業的做法,為加密礦業的綠色轉型提供了新方向。尤其是在全球氣候變化與能源危機日益嚴峻的背景下,如何將高耗能產業的副產品轉化為有用資源,將成為未來產業升級的關鍵。

然而,這類計劃能否大規模推廣,仍需觀察其經濟效益與技術可行性。液冷系統的成本、維護難度,以及熱能回收的效率,都會影響其商業模式的可持續性。此外,如何平衡礦機運算效能與熱能回收的最佳配置,也是技術挑戰之一。

總括而言,Canaan的嘗試不僅是對傳統礦業能源使用模式的挑戰,更是推動數字經濟與綠色經濟融合的重要一步。未來更多類似的跨界合作,或許能在全球推動更環保、更高效的區塊鏈生態系統發展。這對香港及其他地區的加密產業,提供了寶貴的參考與啟發。

Base Setup

keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a fashion model walking through a dim stone tunnel toward a bright exit, captured as a live action photograph or movie still, not an illustration or CGI render. Her styling leans seductive and attractive through fashion, attitude, and mood rather than explicit content.

Shot and Camera

Full body silhouette shot from behind at slightly low camera height, matching the original perspective and narrow tunnel framing. Keep her stride, tunnel curvature, and vanishing light exactly as seen.

Identity and Pose

Preserve her height impression, slim silhouette, hair length, and body proportions. She walks forward with one hip subtly angled, natural arm swing, confident stride, and a slow, sensual rhythm. Her head tilts slightly as if aware of being watched. Include 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic.

Lighting and Environment

Strong backlight from the tunnel exit creates a glowing rim around her body, with soft, scattered reflections on the wet stone floor. The tunnel remains dark with textured stone irregularities and real moisture streaks. Add subtle haze for realism and keep the environment grounded with accurate shadows and surface wear.

Masking and Constraints

Change only the outfit and styling, keep lighting, perspective, white balance, pose, face geometry, body proportions, and silhouette the same. Absolutely no added text, no cartoon look, no CGI sheen, no plastic skin, no floating feet, and no overly clean backgrounds. Maintain consistent perspective, grounded contact shadows, film like grain, and full live action realism. Edit the uploaded photo (face based on the reference photo). Ensure the face remains consistent with the person in the uploaded image, without changing facial structure, skin tone . Create a Create an 8K ultra-realistic image of a jpyful woman dancing and celebrating in the rain outdoors. She has a big smile on her face, eyes closed with happiness. She is wearing a floral sleeveless dress with a fitted waist and a short, flowy skirt. She has a simple gold necklace and her dark hair is tied back. Her arms are raised, one hand higher than the other, and she is barefoot, standing on wet ground with her toes touching the surface. The background is blurred with dark green trees, emphasizing her joyful expression and movement. The rain is falling steadily around her, creating a lively and vibrant atmosphere.
