Bitcoin mining is only economically viable at the lowest possible energy prices, which only occurs when there are no other buyers of that energy locally. Miners only use stranded or wasted energy that has no other local buyers, and thus they do not raise electricity prices https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/06/23/only-bitcoin-miners-with-low-power-costs-and-high-sustainable-energy-mix-will-survive-jpmorgan/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1713170552788021582

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
