I was reading an article which explains that bitcoin might be able to run on a clean energy technology to avoid claims such as bitcoin uses a lot of energy which increases the global energy consumption.

It says that bitcoin can run its functions using decarbonized energy systems and is merely being over criticized. While other industries are producing the most carbon emission, the critics are after bitcoin!

My question is that what other forms of energy is bitcoin using for its mining?
Are there any other possible solutions to decrease bitcoin’s energy consumption?

Maybe clean energy means the energy which is eco-friendly to the environments. There are many companies producing more carbon emission than bitcoin mining, they cannot say bitcoin is the most using global energy consumption. the solution is to using more green energy to all of industries in the world, not only for bitcoin mining.
