Bitcoin miners have already used more electricity than in all of last year, BloombergNEF (BNEF) reported Monday.

  • Miners are on track to use 91 terawatt hours (TWh) this year, or about the same amount as Pakistan, BNEF said.
  • Estimated energy consumption of bitcoin mining last year was 67 TWh.
  • Bitcoin’s rising price in recent months has made mining more attractive, enticing companies with less energy-efficient machines to join the network and drive up power usage.
