Compute indexPreview

The highest power price AI data centres can pay and still cover every other cost, in $ or £ per MWh. Inspired by Hans Royal's Compute Heat Rate™ framework, with our own inputs and assumptions. How it's calculated. Preview: values may change.

Compute heat rate index

estimate

What serving AI can pay for power, all models and GPUs blended

Keep-running price (CHR-D)

Power price at which an existing fleet still covers its running costs

GPU rental price

What renting the GPU costs per hour on the open market; covers power up to $0,000/MWh

Cost to own and run, excl. power

Hardware, building, network and staff that revenue must cover first$0.00 per GPU-hour

Compute heat rate index over time

$/MWh · All GPUs

Frontier: the largest closed models; Mid-range: everyday API, enterprise contracts and self-hosted; Budget: hosted open models and small models. Each group is its tiers weighted as in the index.
