What Widnau allows

The data center listed in Widnau is operated by Internet Group AG.

Connectivity from Widnau

1 network is listed at the sites in Widnau 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 Widnau

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Widnau 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 52.3% of its electricity from hydro (2025). The detail: hydro 52.3%, nuclear 29.9%, solar 12.1%, oil (fuel oil, diesel) 1.9%, bioenergy 1.6%, geothermal and other renewables 1.6%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 2.3% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 39 g of CO2, i.e. 11.7 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 1.4 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 Widnau

Since 1970, 1 earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 100 km of Widnau, and 3 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.3 in 1978, 108 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 Widnau does not allow

With a single listed site, Widnau 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 Widnau is 16 km away, in Gais. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
