From the linked resource:
"Without bitcoin mining, solar - an intermittent
energy source - could supply only 40% of
grid power before utilities would face the
need to fund significant investments with
higher electricity prices. With bitcoin mining
integrated into a solar system however, energy
providers - whether utilities or independent
entities - would have the ability to play the
arbitrage between electricity prices and
bitcoin prices, as well as potentially sell the
“surplus” solar and supply almost all grid power
demands without lowering profitability."
