I still think that Bitcoin mining people should find a good location, and figure out what it takes, and then build their own power plant, to both, sell power to the people, and to mine their own Bitcoin at the same time. Double pay this way.
power stations are not built for current/at the time consumption needs, but instead the consumption needs of the next few decades. and so instead of having low demand/consumption initially(running at 10% capacity) these power stations happily sell upto the other 90% to anyone that wants it, and they do it at a discount(thus power companies get ROI of build cost faster (years instead of decades))
many asic farms already know this and for the last decade have set up facilities within range/region of these power plants and do special deal purchases of energy in 2 year locked contracts thus get a great price for energy to cover a lifecycle of their asic farm before they upgrade their asics to the next gen and then buy new contracts of energy.
these reciprocal relationships between power stations with available excess energy and asic farms, have been a known thing even as far as the first gen asics of 2013
