Datacenters probably do not pay retail rates on electricity, so they might actually run quite a bit cheaper (or more expensive if they use highly available power, but this seems like overkill for pure compute power).


Sure, but everything else about a data center is more expensive (real estate, operations people, networking, equipment). There's a reason AWS is so expensive.
