What Santiago de Cali allows

The data center listed in Santiago de Cali is operated by WAVE DC.

Connectivity from Santiago de Cali

12 networks are listed at the sites in Santiago de Cali according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works. 2 Internet exchange points are reachable from these sites, which cuts latency to the large content networks and the cost of transit. The large networks reachable directly from these sites, without buying transit, are Cloudflare: they are present at the exchange point where one site in the city is a point of presence. Reaching your cloud over an exchange point rather than the public Internet changes latency, and above all the price of data egress.

The electricity behind Santiago de Cali

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Santiago de Cali are connected to the national grid, itself interconnected with its neighbours. What is measured, and what decides, is therefore the country's generation mix. That grid draws 69.2% of its electricity from hydro (2025). The detail: hydro 69.2%, natural gas 13.8%, coal 6.1%, solar 5.1%, oil (fuel oil, diesel) 3.1%, bioenergy 2.6%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 23% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 187 g of CO2, i.e. 2.4 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 6.6 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 Santiago de Cali

Since 1970, 18 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or above have been recorded within 100 km of Santiago de Cali, and 70 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 7.4 in 2026, 163 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 Santiago de Cali does not allow

With a single listed site, Santiago de Cali 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 Santiago de Cali is 300 km away, in Cota. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
