2,000 MW Electricity Allocated For Bitcon Production - Bloom Pakistan

Pakistan's federal government announces a groundbreaking initiative to allocate 2,000 megawatts of surplus electricity to Bitcoin mining and AI data centers, as reported by Bloom Pakistan.

The government-backed Pakistan Crypto Council will oversee this digital transformation project, which could generate over $1.1 billion annually through Bitcoin production. By redirecting underutilized energy capacity during off-peak hours, Pakistan aims to create thousands of high-tech jobs while establishing itself as a regional blockchain and data center hub between Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. The initiative includes regulatory frameworks through the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority and plans for renewable energy-powered facilities.

• Could produce approximately 17,500 Bitcoins annually, representing 10% of global mining capacity
• Expected to create thousands of jobs in software engineering, cybersecurity, and data analytics
• Includes future plans for AI-powered economic zones and renewable energy integration
• Supported by improved connectivity through the Africa-2 submarine cable system
