Why prices sit where they do

Equinix is the only operator represented in Switzerland in the catalog, with five disclosed IBX facilities split between Zurich (ZH2, ZH4, ZH5) and Geneva (GV1, GV2 in the Le Lignon district) — none flagged AI-ready, none carrying an Uptime or TIA-942 certification, and none with a published site power figure in MW, consistent with the operator's pattern across its European estate of holding capacity data behind a sales inquiry. ZH5, in neighboring Oberengstringen, is the largest by floor space at roughly 79,416 sq ft. Business electricity runs $0.292/kWh (GlobalPetrolPrices, Dec 2025) — among the highest commercial rates the catalog tracks — despite a grid that is roughly 90% hydro and nuclear, reflecting Switzerland's high transmission and distribution costs rather than generation scarcity. Coverage here is a single operator's public disclosure, not the full Zurich/Geneva market — an early marker for a country the catalog has only just begun to track.
