2 of 5 public evidence cells are sourced. 3 comparable national observations remain open.
Each cell carries its observation ID, confidence, comparability and provenance.
No operational AWS, Azure or Google Cloud region located in Namibia. Edge locations, partner deployments and points of presence are excluded.
Cassava's AI Factory release names South Africa (deploying) and Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt and Morocco (planned) only. Not named here; not evidence of no national AI-compute access.
No comparable national methodology. Facility figures are not summed.
Awaiting regulator extraction under a common definition and period.
Electricity access is not grid reliability. No comparable series located.
These are deterministic comparability blockers—not editorial scores or automated recommendations.
A national operational-capacity figure under one disclosed, repeatable methodology with operational and planned capacity separated.
obs-dc-na-unavailableA regulator or central-bank national series using a common activity definition and period that can be applied across all thirty markets.
obs-payments-na-unavailableA national SAIDI, SAIFI or equivalent reliability series with method, period and coverage disclosed.
obs-grid-na-unavailableUse these boundaries when interpreting this profile or combining it with external information.
Counts operational AWS, Azure and Google Cloud regions only. Edge locations, partner deployments and points of presence are excluded.
A Cassava company signal is provider-specific context. It does not establish national AI-compute capacity or commercial operation.
Facility announcements and incompatible commercial estimates cannot be summed into national operational megawatts.
Subscriptions and accounts are not unique people. Contextual regulator counts do not fill the comparable national payments indicator.
Electricity access is not grid reliability. A compatible national reliability series is required.
Retrieval state describes the latest validation check and does not erase reviewed evidence.
