Digital Power Network Submits Letter to Congress Ahead of Hearing on American Energy Dominance
Highlights Role of Bitcoin Mining in Strengthening U.S. Energy Infrastructure
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Ahead of the April 2 congressional hearing titled “Unleashing the Golden Age of American Energy Dominance,” The Digital Power Network (DPN), the leading coalition of U.S. Bitcoin miners, has submitted a letter to the House Natural Resources Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations emphasizing the unique role Bitcoin mining can play in accelerating American energy production and infrastructure growth.
The letter, authored by DPN’s Director of Government Relations & Public Policy Hailey Miller, outlines how Bitcoin mining serves as a flexible, interruptible, and location-agnostic energy load that supports grid reliability, monetizes stranded energy, and helps drive investment into both traditional and renewable energy projects.
“Bitcoin mining is one of the few industries that can instantly adjust power consumption to match supply and demand. That makes it a powerful tool for strengthening American energy independence, boosting rural infrastructure, and turning wasted energy into economic growth,” said Hailey Miller, DPN’s Director of Government Relations & Public Policy. “This is exactly the kind of innovation Congress should consider as it charts a path toward long-term energy dominance.”
The letter encourages lawmakers to view Bitcoin mining as a strategic ally in U.S. energy development and offers DPN as a resource to support future policy work related to energy markets, digital infrastructure, and emerging industrial loads.
