Connectivity from Ho Chi Minh City

12 networks are listed at the sites in Ho Chi Minh City according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works.

The electricity behind Ho Chi Minh City

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Ho Chi Minh City 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 48.1% (2025). The detail: coal 48.1%, hydro 33%, solar 7.4%, natural gas 6.2%, wind 4.6%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 54.5% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 461 g of CO2, i.e. about 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 16.4 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 Ho Chi Minh City

Since 1970, 0 earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 100 km of Ho Chi Minh City, and 3 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.3 in 2005, 193 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 Ho Chi Minh City does not allow
