BTC uses a lot of energy, some of it excess clean energy, but mostly just dirty energy. It is far from helping the environment. Storing excess clean energy, now that would help the enviroment. Using excess clean energy for BTC means storage needs to compete with BTC, making storage economically less feasible. So BTC not only uses lots of dirty energy, it also hinders innovation in using excess clean energy. BTC is just terrible for the environment.
