At the current spot price of Bitcoin and energy provider Kwh rates the machines just break even. NZ power is very costly compared to the rest of the world so the only way to mine profitably is direct with renewable energy sources. I would like to pilot some sites in NZ and bring foreign investment to create large scale farms.
Please contact me if you have any sort of connections to renewable energy or even if you have at least 1.5Kw surplus solar at your home which will cater for one machine that is a good start, private power generators with large Kw and even MW capacity are very welcome.
