What is heat reuse?

Heat reuse is capturing the heat that mining machines give off and using it for something else, such as heating buildings, greenhouses or water.

How it works

Nearly all the electricity a miner uses leaves as heat. Liquid-cooled machines return it as warm water that a heat exchanger can pass to a heating system.

Why it matters

It turns a waste product into a second income, or makes heating cheaper by the value of the bitcoin mined.
