Description

Description

A $1 billion data centre project backed by Microsoft and UAE-based G42, planned to be located about 100 kilometres northwest of Nairobi, Kenya. The facility was expected to run largely on geothermal energy and deliver cloud services via Microsoft's Azure platform to businesses and government institutions. The project has been suspended due to insufficient national power capacity in Kenya, which currently stands at about 3,000 megawatts, while the data centre alone would require roughly a third of that supply.
