Why prices sit where they do
Afghanistan's sole catalogued facility is the government-run Afghanistan National Data Center (ANDC), housed inside the Ministry of Communications and IT (MCIT) building in Kabul since 2009, built to support e-government services with capacity for more than 50 racks. Procurement records show it continues to receive maintenance and upgrades — including a World Bank-financed 'Digital CASA Afghanistan' critical-equipment upgrade — under the current MCIT administration. No public power tariff for data-centre customers has been identified from MCIT, DABS (the national utility) or any other government source, so no benchmark is published. Afghanistan has no documented commercial colocation market from first-party sources; the ANDC serves government departments rather than third-party enterprise customers, so it is catalogued as a flagship national facility rather than a commercial one.
