The electricity behind Utrecht

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Utrecht 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, natural gas, supplies only 34.9% (2025). The detail: natural gas 34.9%, wind 25%, solar 21.1%, coal 7.1%, bioenergy 5.1%, oil (fuel oil, diesel) 3.9%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 45.9% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 254 g of CO2, i.e. 1.8 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 9 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 Utrecht

Since 1970, 0 earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 100 km of Utrecht, and 2 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.4 in 1992, 116 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 Utrecht does not allow

With a single listed site, Utrecht 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 Utrecht is 3 km away, in Groenekan. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
