It gets dark early. Being so far north I wouldn't think solar to be the best choice, especially trying to run mining rigs 24/7 with only four panels and only 3-4 hours of sunlight a day, and cloudless days too. The math doesn't seem add up. I'd say wind is the way to go but for mining crypto barely the only way to mine at a profit is to be near dirt cheap hydro.
Happy solstice troy :)

You are correct. I only mine when the sun is shining fully and we hae extra power to burn. Only a few hours per day in winter but 8 hours in summer.
Wind is the way to go along with solar because generally when the sun is not shining its windy. Perfect combination.
January the zoning boards gets new rules and I hope to get my wind turbines up after that.
