We cater to medium and large scale miners and offer discounts for certain things like having a larger operation, pre-payment, etc. so our prices are very customer-specific.

If you show us your current hosting agreement we can beat it. Anyone who is interested can email us with the specifics of the hardware they are looking to host and we can provide a hosting package tailored to their needs.

Your website would be a lot better if it gave any actually useful info. Quantified info, I mean; there's a lot of encouraging words and pictures on there but zero numbers.

While you are unlikely to find "free electricity" in any significant quantity if you are looking for large scale hosting we offer the lowest prices in the world and we're located right next door in Canada.

If you're curious you can check out our website @ www.greatnorthdata.com and contact us for more information.

Work in IT and wait for your company to over buy on the Data Centers power, then ask permission to use the spare power.

Simple, Old-School Extortion.  Where's the money?  You got the money? 

Someone owe you money?  Make them install Bitcoin miners as a "Debt Pilferer" (Pilfer = steal small amounts but do it repeatedly)

Works like a charm, many people don't have thousands laying around so $10 a day works for me, their bill, not my problem.

You can also render debt collection services at a 25% return; someone owes your client $10,000, get it over time at a 25% or $2,500 cut.

Kinda like a poor man's debt collector service since collection agencies cost heaps.

You can also ask relatives to host a few miners for you; many will host them at no cost to help you and be part of the revolution.

Yeah, a bit barbaric for most but so is what you ask... you're either looking at a lawsuit or a lot of ass kissing.

You do what you gotta do, to me an unpaid debt is still a debt where interest accumulates over time.

Thanks to Bitcoin, we're no longer running the "Trade-in Your Organs Today & We'll Remove Your Cement Shoes" program... 

You ask stupid questions, you get stupid answers... however, debt pilfer is very popular with deadbeats who owe me money.

I get free power because the landlord owes me a lot of money and couldn't pay me in one lump sum.

Last way is either Solar, Wind or Hydro (which means fluid) or via a wood gasifyer but then you need a lot of wood but still comes to less than $0.01 per KW/h, that's basically free when you live on a lumber yard.

As you see, lot of ifs... solar and wind are not constant either so you need a backup.

So I vote extortion and wood gasifyer; one makes you a total scum bag, the other requires a lumber yard.

Pick your poison, I prefer to be a scum bag for now and use the scum bag's money to get a gasifier... I already have the lumber yard 

other than stealing it---which if you choose to do you're a douchebag--none of it is free.
However my electric company in the U.S. offers different rates you can choose if you use a lot of power.
Regular residential electricity is about .13kwh or commercial is about .09kwh.


Low cost alt electric such as wind/solar would be good after you get ROI on equipment.

Running a generator 24/7 is not a good idea. The generator will ware out quickly if it is a cheap generator. Once fuel prices go back up it will cost more to run, and overall it is most likely more of a headache then just paying your electricity bill.

I don't think you would want to run it at 100% all the time.

I had the same idea of finding a natural gas well and building a steel warehouse next to it,  but there are a lot of other costs involved that would hurt you if the difficulty spiked or the price went down or both.

Personally I am looking for a used 100-250KW wind generator on eBay to install at my industrial warehouse.  I am just waiting for the city to get back to me on how big I can go.  I also have a large flat roof that I can install 100-150KW of solar but they will only produce for 5-6 hours a day.  But the tax credits and rebates from the power company will bring my electricity costs down to about .06/kwh

yes it is! google wvo, atf, wmo

got myself over 100litres of wvo from restaurants and i didn't try that hard!

This generator takes natural gas. Many homes in the USA have their own natural gas well on the property. So I am trying to see what cost feasibility might look like.

You can steal it from your neighbors house. I'm just joking. The best way is probably to find a office space or someone who has free electricity and host it there. Although don't host too many or the land lord would surely find out.

I am pretty sure its cheaper to get electricity from your outlet then buying diesel to generate electricity.

Can any of you electricians tell me what this means??

Generator rated at:

18 kw (NG)
Rated AC Current 75A (NG) @ 240 Volts (Single Phase)
Rated Voltage    240 Volts (Single Phase)

So from this generator how many SP20s can I run? I think one sp20 wants 1400 watts, so this one generator can run 12 SP20s???

Thanks!

Just had this strategy:

Natural gas generator + land with your own natural gas

Find property that has a low producing well that won't justify a high property value. Buy property, plug in your generators... bam.

How many sp20s can I run on 20kwh?

is this a serious possibility? sounds not... butcher shop....?

Or waist fats, if you live near a liposuction clinic.

too expensive!

old diesel generator running on waste fats

Depends on every country. In  some people get free electricity as part of the job.

The problem is finding something that's "free" electricity but also can handle the amps for a nice setup.

There is no true "free power" someone pays for it.

Really only way is like you mention rent and it includes electricity.   Most rentals do not do this its only common in college/university big apartment complex's.  You could move back in one they cannot make being a student required.  But I doubt it would be worth it as most you pay a pretty penny for the housing.
