> Ugh why did he have to ruin it with the block chain. He probably has enough solar and battery capacity to power all his nearby neighbors every day 24-hours a day

Technically, it's mining cryptocurrencies. Probably at peak crypto mining profitability (around Dec-Jan) it was making significantly over what he could sell to the neighbors; also implying his neighbors would just switch to his infrastructure, that would be a bit of hassle.

Maybe if he hooked up all those GPUs to a render farm, it would be an alternative.
