Why prices sit where they do
Rwanda's catalog entry is TransAfrica Communications' (TrAC) data center in Kigali, which offers rack, cage and rack-unit colocation; the operator describes itself on its own site as the only Tier III data center provider in the country, though Rwanda has zero facilities on the Uptime Institute's public award registry, so this remains a self-declared rather than independently certified claim. Earlier press coverage of Africa Data Centers building a Kigali site could not be reconfirmed on the operator's current locations page, which lists only Johannesburg, Cape Town, Nairobi and Lagos — so that project is treated as unresolved rather than catalogued. GlobalPetrolPrices does not publish a business electricity tariff for Rwanda, so no power-index figure is tracked for this market.
Frequently asked questions
How much does colocation cost in Rwanda?

Why is colocation priced the way it is in Rwanda?
Commercial electricity in Rwanda is $0.089 per kWh, and power is the largest single input into a colocation rate.
