Concerning our 2-year old discussion on Bitcoin. Researchers have been able to come up with a very close estimate on how much electricity is consumed (b Bitcoin) and the average price miners pay per kilowatt-hour (kWh). news.bitcoin.com Note Paraguay (that spehere under the letter M) that gets share of its electricity from Itaipu joint hydroelectric power plant. Paraguay's economy cannot use all its share and sell to Brazil. So there is kW/h available there.

EC entering Africa Uber and its competitors started using EVs As more and more EVs become available on the used vehicle market in these source countries, there is great potential that these preowned EVs will find a new lease of life in African countries in rideshare platforms like Nopia. Earlier this year, Uber drivers in Kenya went on strike to push for higher fares, citing high operating costs associated with running their ICE vehicles. Uber drivers stand to benefit from following their peers at Nopia by switching to electric vehicles via lower servicing costs. With the internal combustion engine taken out of the equation, fewer moving parts and in the long term, no timing belts and emission control devices to replace, drivers stand to save a huge chunk in opex costs. cleantechnica.com
