Electricity Costs

All our racks are fused for 16 or 32 amps. Our rack prices include electricity and internet use with “fair use”. Does your power consumption have a normal consumption with peaks and troughs throughout the day, with a maximum of x amps, or do you want to buy KWh in advance as a “bundle”? It’s all possible. If you stay within the set Ampere or bundle, it is all-in but with fair use that the power consumption has a normal consumption over the day.

Qupra works with peak and off-peak rates. The advantage in the electricity price is therefore passed on to you; in that case, based on a forecast issued in advance, you pay a maximum of €0.35 per KwH peak and a maximum of 14 cents off-peak. In practice, this is often lower for larger purchases. Of course excluding rent of the rack space. Request a separate quote using  the form below
