What Aachen allows

The data center listed in Aachen is operated by RelAix Networks GmbH.

Connectivity from Aachen

2 networks are listed at the sites in Aachen according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works.

Compliance and sovereignty

Sites in this city are operated by companies outside US jurisdiction, hence outside the CLOUD Act.

The electricity behind Aachen

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Aachen are connected to the national grid, itself interconnected with its neighbours. What is measured, and what decides, is therefore the country's generation mix. No single source dominates it: the largest, wind, supplies only 27.2% (2025). The detail: wind 27.2%, coal 20.6%, solar 17.9%, natural gas 16.5%, bioenergy 10.1%, hydro 3.9%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 40.9% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 330 g of CO2, i.e. 1.4 times less than the world average (458 g), 2025 figure. Concretely: a 3 kVA rack, in a site with a PUE of 1.5, draws 35,478 kWh a year and therefore emits 11.7 tonnes of CO2 a year here. The same rack, same hardware, same PUE, would emit 16 tonnes on a world-average grid. The building has nothing to do with it: the country does.

What the ground has done under Aachen

Since 1970, 2 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or above have been recorded within 100 km of Aachen, and 4 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.5 in 1976, 160 km away. This record covers 56 years, which is short on a seismic timescale: no recorded earthquake does not mean no hazard. It does not replace the statutory zoning, which alone binds construction.

What Aachen does not allow

With a single listed site, Aachen cannot support a disaster-recovery plan spread over two separate buildings within the same town. A second site remains necessary, and it is found in the nearby cities listed below. No Internet exchange point is listed here: traffic will run over transit bought from a carrier, which is billed by bandwidth. No rate is published by the operators in this city: pricing is on request, and we do not estimate it on their behalf.

Other cities with data centers near Aachen

The nearest site outside Aachen is 23 km away, in Dueren. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
