Leveraging surplus energy for crypto mining is actually a straightforward opportunity—at least on paper.
France took a shot at formalizing this approach in June 2025, but the proposal got blocked for political reasons. Funny enough, what sounds controversial on the legislative front is already quietly happening. EDF's subsidiary Exaion has been quietly running mining operations in the background for a while now.
The catch? Europe's dealing with serious energy constraints right now. So officially green-lighting this practice becomes tricky, even though the infrastructure and business case already exist. It's a classic gap between what's politically feasible and what the market is already doing.
