Why prices sit where they do

Uganda's only catalog entry is Raxio UG1 in Kampala, opened in 2021 as the country's first Tier III-certified, carrier- and cloud-neutral colocation facility, with capacity for up to 400 racks, 1.5 MW of IT power and an Uptime Institute Tier III Certification of Design Documents. No Constructed Facility award or competing independent operator has been identified in the country yet. Business electricity runs $0.102/kWh (GlobalPetrolPrices, Dec 2025), reflecting a grid dominated by hydropower from the Nalubaale, Kiira and Karuma dams and distributed by UMEME under tariffs set by the Electricity Regulatory Authority. Uganda is a new entry in the catalog, reflecting the country's still-nascent commercial colocation market relative to regional hubs like Kenya and South Africa.
