RumptyCloud is building renewable-powered cloud infrastructure in Lagos — a sustainable, eco-friendly cloud for Nigeria and builders across Africa. Today we estimate around 90% renewable energy. The plan is 99.9%.
Compute shouldn't just become more accessible. We think it should become more sustainable too.
Solar inverters and battery storage supporting our infrastructure.
Renewable energy share is currently an estimate based on typical operating conditions. We are working toward more detailed real-time energy monitoring.
Cloud infrastructure consumes energy. As AI and computing demand continue to grow, the question isn't only where that compute runs, but how we power it.
We're building RumptyCloud with renewable energy as a core part of the infrastructure from the beginning.
Our Lagos cloud infrastructure combines on-site solar generation, battery storage, and conventional backup power to keep workloads running while reducing our dependence on non-renewable energy sources.
Energy from the solar array feeds the infrastructure and charges battery storage. Grid and generator capacity stay on as fallback so workloads keep running when generation is short. Today that mix is about 90% renewable. The plan is 99.9%.
Fallback path: Grid and generator when solar and storage are not enough.
24 solar panels (620 W monocrystalline each, roughly 14.9 kWp) power the infrastructure during daylight and recharge the 37 kWh battery bank. Stored solar then carries the load through quieter generation and into the night.
During extended cloudy conditions or unusually high demand, the public grid may supplement solar and storage. We use grid power selectively to keep the platform available and avoid unnecessary deep battery discharge.
A generator is available for extended outages when solar, batteries, and the public grid cannot support the infrastructure. It is an emergency fallback — we aim to keep its use limited.
Green cloud computing is an approach to running cloud infrastructure while reducing its environmental impact. That can include using renewable energy, improving hardware utilization, consolidating workloads through virtualization, cutting unnecessary consumption, and designing infrastructure around energy efficiency.
For RumptyCloud, that starts with energy.
Rather than treating renewable energy as something to add later, we're designing it into how our infrastructure grows. In practice that means:
The machines stay in Lagos. The account is open to builders across Africa — Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, and everywhere else on the continent.
That is what we mean by a sustainable cloud in Africa: locally operated hardware, solar-first power, not a US region with a green marketing line.
Eco-friendly here is the same plant: on-site solar, batteries, and backup only when generation is short. We use the phrase because people search it. Today that is about 90% renewable. The plan is 99.9%.
Eco-friendly cloud in Nigeria — same facts, written for that search.
RumptyCloud isn't simply routing workloads to infrastructure somewhere else. We are building and operating the physical infrastructure behind the platform locally in Lagos, Nigeria.
As demand for cloud computing and AI infrastructure grows across Africa, we believe the infrastructure supporting that growth can be built locally while also being designed around more sustainable sources of energy.
That same plant runs virtual machines, Kubernetes, object storage, and AI inference. About RumptyCloud is the story of how the closet became a cloud.
The setup as it stands today, and what we're working toward next.
On-site generation on the Lagos infrastructure.
Stored solar carries the load when the array is quiet.
Renewable energy produced by the current setup.
Typical operating mix today — estimate, not an audit.
Measuring generation and consumption more directly.
Grow solar and storage until almost every hour is renewable. Grid and generator stay for the last sliver.
We're still early, and our energy infrastructure is evolving alongside RumptyCloud.
The ~90% figure is our current estimate of the proportion of infrastructure energy supplied by solar generation, either used directly or stored in our batteries. It is based on typical operating conditions and is not yet an independently audited measurement.
The plan is 99.9% renewable: more solar and storage until almost every hour is covered, with grid and generator only for the last sliver. We are not operating there yet.
As our infrastructure grows, we want to improve how we measure and publish energy usage, renewable generation, and the energy mix powering RumptyCloud. We are working toward directly measuring generation and consumption across solar, battery, grid, and generator sources — and we will update this page as that data exists.
Yes. RumptyCloud runs in Lagos, Nigeria — solar-first infrastructure for builders across Africa. Today we estimate about 90% renewable energy. The plan is 99.9%.
On RumptyCloud infrastructure operated in Lagos. Builders in Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, and the rest of the continent can deploy. The machines stay in West Africa.
No. Typical mix today is about 90% renewable by our estimate — not an audit. The plan is 99.9% renewable.
Yes. The same Lagos plant runs virtual machines, one-click apps, managed databases, buckets, Kubernetes, and AI inference.
Yes. RumptyCloud in Lagos is an eco-friendly cloud in the honest sense: 24 solar panels, battery storage, and an estimated ~90% renewable share today. The plan is 99.9%. Grid and generator remain for fallback.
Yes. The same Lagos plant serves builders across Africa. Workloads run in West Africa on solar-first infrastructure, not a US or EU data centre.
On-site solar first, batteries to carry the night, and conventional backup only when generation is short. Today that is about 90% renewable. The plan is 99.9%.
We use those words for the same plant. Green cloud, sustainable cloud, and eco-friendly cloud on RumptyCloud all point at the Lagos solar-and-battery setup.
