If I remember my company's latest Frankfurt contract, that was a few
100€ for the racks but 10s of thousands € yearly for the energy (~7kw
per rack)
To me, today, datacenter colo business is just reselling energy.

.278€ per kWh is sort of a list price what they have to pay to the utility.
On top of that they run 20kW cooling equipment and 20kW UPS.
I have seen even higher prices in Frankfurt.
Yeah, I believe Mike tries to compare with US (subsidized) energy prices,

Looking for colo space in Amsterdam, is it common to have to pay for
phase3 power busbar and busbar, power supply, and tap off? Total costs
for adding 3 phase plus testing etc ..... 136.000 Euros for NRCs and the
following MRC:
The Service Fee for a 20kW deployment would be €350/kW/month, so €7,000
per month in total based on a 36 month term and 3% annual indexation____
·Electricity consumption will be measured and invoiced monthly in
arrears at €0.278 per kWh (2024 pricing)
