Why prices sit where they do

DR Congo's catalog entries are both in Kinshasa: Raxio Group's DRC1, launched in 2024 with 400 racks and 1.5 MW of IT power, holding both Uptime Institute Tier III Design Documents and Constructed Facility awards, and Open Access Data Centres' OADC-TEXAF Kinshasa (FIH1), a 2 MW facility inside TEXAF's Silikin Village complex holding a Design Documents award only. DRC1 is currently the only fully Uptime-certified (design-and-constructed) Tier III facility identified in the country. Business electricity runs $0.084/kWh (GlobalPetrolPrices, Dec 2025), reflecting a grid that draws heavily on hydropower — including the Inga dam complex — though unreliable transmission and limited grid access mean many commercial users, including data centers, rely substantially on diesel backup generation.
