Africa's AI Boom Has a Power Problem

Microsoft. Google. Meta.
They’re all buying nuclear power just to keep AI running. So where does Africa plug in?

Inside Lagos’ Rack Centre — Nigeria has 20+ data centres growing fast, with Equinix, Digital Realty, and Airtel building big. The market is $374M now, heading to $782M by 2031.

But here’s the catch: most run on diesel. Grid reliability is 41%. Power costs 10x more than Nairobi or Joburg.

Lagos is in the race. But can the lights stay on long enough to build it?
