Electricity map


Our VMs are low-carbon

  • The closest EC2 region to Berlin is eu-central-1

    (Frankfurt; Germany electricity mix: wind, coal, nuclear, gas)

  • Instead, we deployed these VMs in eu-north-1

    (Stockholm; Sweden electricity mix: hydro, nuclear, wind)

  • According to Electricity Map, they produce ~5x less carbon

    (at least Monday morning, when the VMs were deployed)

  • The latency was a bit higher; let me know if you saw any difference!
