China has commissioned the Ulanqab Xinghe base, described as the world’s largest
single-unit intelligent computing center, spanning roughly 20 football fields
with 160 MW of power capacity. The facility is built with on-site wind
generation and a dedicated transmission line to supply about 80% direct green
power, uses AI-driven power management and storage, and supports parallel
capacity on the order of one million accelerator cards and P-level compute
scale. Operators say one kWh of onsite green power can be converted into roughly
30 seconds of AI text-to-video output.
