德國電信子公司 MMS 與 Bankhaus Metzler 合作試行由再生能源驅動的比特幣挖礦基礎設施

德國電信的全資子公司 MMS 與 Bankhaus Metzler 合作啟動了一個試點計畫。該計畫的重點是引入比特幣挖礦基礎設施，利用太陽能和風能等剩餘再生能源產生的電力。

Telekom MMS and Bankhaus Metzler Launch Bitcoin Mining PilotDeutsche Telekom’s wholly-owned subsidiary, MMS, has partnered with Bankhaus Metzler to introduce a Bitcoin mining infrastructure that utilizes electricity from surplus renewable energy. This project aims to integrate Bitcoin mining as a stabilizing mechanism for Germany’s fluctuating renewable energy output.

Telekom MMS 和 Bankhaus Metzler 啟動比特幣挖礦試點德國電信的全資子公司 MMS 與 Bankhaus Metzler 合作推出了比特幣挖礦基礎設施，該基礎設施利用剩餘的再生能源發電。該項目旨在將比特幣挖礦整合為德國波動的可再生能源產量的穩定機制。

According to a press release on Monday, the partnership will introduce Bitcoin mining as a stabilizing mechanism for Germany's fluctuating renewable energy output. Essentially, MMS will provide a sustainable solution that uses digital technology to regulate energy networks during times of high output.

根據週一的新聞稿，該合作夥伴關係將引入比特幣挖礦作為德國波動的可再生能源產量的穩定機制。從本質上講，MMS 將提供一種可持續的解決方案，利用數位技術在高輸出時期調節能源網路。

As stated in the release, electricity from renewable energy sources often goes unused due to limited grid capacity or insufficient storage options. Thus, the Bitcoin mining infrastructure provides a means to properly harness surplus energy.

如新聞稿所述，由於電網容量有限或儲存選項不足，可再生能源的電力經常未被使用。因此，比特幣挖礦基礎設施提供了一種正確利用剩餘能源的方法。

The pilot project aims to supply reliable field data and insights for project planning. Oliver Nyderle, Head of Digital Trust & Web3 Infrastructure at MMS, describes the project as “digital monetary photosynthesis,” converting excess energy into digital assets. He believes the project would help create a dynamic tool to manage power grid fluctuations in Germany.

該試點計畫旨在為計畫規劃提供可靠的現場數據和見解。 MMS 數位信任和 Web3 基礎設施主管 Oliver Nyderle 將該項目描述為“數位貨幣光合作用”，將多餘的能源轉化為數位資產。他相信該計畫將有助於創建一個動態工具來管理德國的電網波動。

It is worth noting that other countries, including the US and Finland, already regulate power via Bitcoin mining. Thus, the pilot project aims to validate the process for Germany. The long-term goal is to use the pilot project data to help the energy grid stabilize during times of variations that stress the grid.

值得注意的是，包括美國和芬蘭在內的其他國家已經透過比特幣挖礦來監管電力。因此，該試點計畫旨在驗證德國的流程。長期目標是利用試點計畫數據幫助電網在電網承受壓力的變化時期保持穩定。

Moreover, photovoltaic plant operators and wind power producers could benefit from this approach, as they frequently face unpredictable power regulations. Meanwhile, Metis Solutions GmbH in Dresden hosts the Bitcoin miners for the trial project.

此外，光電站營運商和風力發電商可以從這種方法中受益，因為他們經常面臨不可預測的電力法規。同時，位於德勒斯登的 Metis Solutions GmbH 託管了試驗計畫的比特幣礦工。

The mining containers are housed at Riva GmbH Engineering, a Backnang-based manufacturer of metal and glass facades. Telekom MMS will use its years of experience with Web3 infrastructure to manage the devices’ operation. However, test runs and data evaluations are defined and analyzed with Bankhaus Metzler.

採礦貨櫃位於 Riva GmbH Engineering 公司，這是一家位於巴克南的金屬和玻璃帷幕牆製造商。 Telekom MMS 將利用其多年的 Web3 基礎設施經驗來管理設備的運作。然而，測試運行和數據評估是由 Bankhaus Metzler 定義和分析的。

Through the pilot project, Bankhaus Metzler, Germany’s second-oldest bank, is exploring further possibilities for financial services with digital assets. As CNF reported, Bankhaus Metzler assisted KfW in launching a blockchain-based digital bond in May.

透過試點項目，德國第二古老的銀行梅茨勒銀行正在探索數位資產金融服務的進一步可能性。根據 CNF 報導，Bankhaus Metzler 在 5 月協助德國復興信貸銀行推出了基於區塊鏈的數位債券。

Telekom MMS Blockchain EffortsLike Deutsche Telekom, MMS has consistently shown support for blockchain development through several initiatives. MMS provides infrastructure for various decentralized protocols in the Web3 sector, including Chainlink, Fetch.ai, and Polygon.

Telekom MMS 區塊鏈努力與德國電信一樣，MMS 一直透過多項措施來支援區塊鏈開發。 MMS 為 Web3 領域的各種去中心化協定提供基礎設施，包括 Chainlink、Fetch.ai 和 Polygon。

Moreover, MMS began operating a Bitcoin node in 2023, expanding its portfolio for the first time to include a Proof-of-Work network. In July 2024, the firm commenced dedicated worker node operations in Subsquid’s decentralized data lake infrastructure. As CNF reported, these worker nodes played a critical role by swiftly responding to data requests from various users.

此外，MMS 於 2023 年開始營運比特幣節點，首次擴大其產品組合，納入工作量證明網路。 2024 年 7 月，該公司開始在 Subsquid 的去中心化資料湖基礎設施中運行專用工作節點。根據 CNF 報告，這些工作節點透過快速回應各種用戶的資料請求發揮了關鍵作用。

Meanwhile, Deutsche Telekom announced its intention to fully engage in Bitcoin mining in June. Following the announcement, crypto analysts expressed optimism for Deutsche Telekom’s blockchain future.

同時，德國電信於六月宣布有意全面涉足比特幣挖礦。公告發布後，加密貨幣分析師對德國電信的區塊鏈未來表示樂觀。
