The electricity behind Gold Coast

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Gold Coast 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, coal, supplies only 42.7% (2025). The detail: coal 42.7%, solar 19.6%, natural gas 16.4%, wind 13.7%, hydro 4.3%, oil (fuel oil, diesel) 2.2%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 61.3% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 525 g of CO2, i.e. 1.1 times 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 18.6 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 Gold Coast

No earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 200 km of Gold Coast since 1970, according to the US Geological Survey's global catalog. 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 Gold Coast does not allow

With a single listed site, Gold Coast 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.

The nearest site outside Gold Coast is 8 km away, in Varsity Lakes. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
