Georgian authorities intend to deal with electricity shortages blamed on cryptocurrency miners.
A record high consumption of electricity blamed on illegal crypto farms in northwestern Georgia has caught the attention of authorities in the capital Tbilisi. The central government and the local utility are taking on the issue of dealing with power shortages in the mountainous region of Svaneti.
Until the end of December, residents of Svaneti had to put up with a limited power supply regime. Underground crypto miners have been blamed for the shortages and damages to the power grid. Minister Turnava commented: Residents of Mestia have held several demonstrations demanding the closure of the mining farms and accused local authorities of protecting the miners. Meanwhile, Energo-pro Georgia threatened to increase the electricity tariffs for the region. Despite this and the protests, consumption has not decreased yet.
