MW: megawatts of power for the computers. PUE: all the electricity a site draws divided by what reaches its computers (1.0 = nothing lost). Networks present: telecom networks recorded at each site, added up. Record quality (A to D) rates the record, not the site. Glossary →
Map
Largest hubs
A hub is a town with at least 5 facilities, with its close neighbours. Facilities in smaller towns are not listed here, so the hubs do not add up to the country total.
