1.4 TWhdata-centre electricity · 0.4% of national generation · grade B, Derived

Mexico's data centres draw 1.4 TWh of electricity a year, which places it 26th of the 33 countries this atlas carries a figure for.

That is 0.4% of everything the country generates — below the 1.2% median across those countries.

Set against 0.4 GW of installed capacity, that implies a 39% load factor.

One metro is tracked here: Querétaro, at 298 MW and under construction.

298 MW of that is not yet operating: it is under construction or still an announcement.

Its strongest showing anywhere in the atlas is Networking on the physical basis, at #5 of 9.

It does not register at all on Silicon or Memory & Storage.

About $4bn of AI infrastructure investment has been announced for Mexico, though announced is not built — that figure is graded C.

Where Mexico ranks

The same tables read three ways. A country can lead one basis and be invisible on another, and that gap is the whole point of the atlas.
