2 networks are listed at the sites in Punta Arenas according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works. 1 Internet exchange point is reachable from these sites, which cuts latency to the large content networks and the cost of transit.
A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Punta Arenas 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, solar, supplies only 25.1% (2025). The detail: solar 25.1%, hydro 22.2%, coal 17.8%, natural gas 15.3%, wind 13.1%, bioenergy 5.7%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 33.7% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 289 g of CO2, i.e. 1.6 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 10.3 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.

Since 1970, 0 earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 100 km of Punta Arenas, and 4 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.2 in 2025, 198 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.

With a single listed site, Punta Arenas 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 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 Punta Arenas is 1,297 km away, in Puerto Montt. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
