Excuse me, do you have any idea how power grids work? You can't selectively choose where the power comes from, its one entire grid, fed by many different sources. Remote dams, coal fired plants, nuclear reactors, all feed into the same grid. Only a tiny subset of btc farms are co-located with an energy producer and use the excess for those purposes. How can you call that the incorrect assumption? It sounds like you are making the incorrect assumption, based off of some idealistic idea of how this could work. The article you linked even states that that specific project is unique, i.e. a one off thing, not the general state of things.
