On December 3 (local time), the High-Level Launch on Green Practices at the UN Climate Change Conference was held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Mr. Ju Jing, Global Advisor for Cross-System Energy Transition at The Climate Group, was invited to deliver a keynote presentation.

Mr. Ju Jing stated that a major achievement of the 28th UN Climate Change Conference is the joint action by developing countries to advance sustainable development, strengthen the alignment of green transition strategies, enhance mutual support, and explore new pathways that balance development and conservation.
 
At present, top-level designs such as China’s “East Data, West Computing” initiative and the ASEAN Digital Masterplan 2025 (ADM) in developing countries and regions including Southeast Asia are being deeply implemented. The energy system transition and infrastructure industry are undergoing a major restructuring.
 

Mr. Ju Jing noted that to ensure the AI-oriented technological revolution of computing infrastructure can achieve efficient, carbon-neutral, and low-cost clustered deployment in developing countries and regions, BCI Group is willing to share the successful experience of the Super Energy Complex’s cross-system vertical integration of “energy + parks + equipment + networks”.

 

He called on all parties to strengthen mutual assistance in the field of computing infrastructure and jointly explore green, localized, and clustered development pathways for computing infrastructure in developing countries along the Belt and Road.

 

The Super Energy Complex integrates four core capabilities: advanced energy, advanced parks, advanced equipment, and advanced networks.

 

Adhering to long-termism and altruism, it adopts an industry-driven investment promotion model to address the unsustainability of the traditional land-oriented model characterized by over-reliance on land allocation, subsidies, and resource concessions.

 

While helping digital economy enterprises decarbonize their computing power, it has formed a unique model for regional computing infrastructure investment:

 

vertically integrating key development elements including land, energy, water, equipment, and networks; conducting holistic planning upfront; developing moderately ahead of demand; and guiding orderly industry access and exit.

 

This enables the local computing industry to sustainably drive regional industrial transformation and upgrading and continuously support the sustainable development of the local economy.

 

Mr. Ju Jing elaborated on the core implementation path of the Datong Super Energy Complex:

 

through heavy-asset investment and self-operation from 0 to 1, the project builds and holds key upstream and downstream industrial infrastructure, including ultra-large-scale wind and solar energy bases, extended-range energy storage stations, water-heat circulation pipe networks, computing equipment R&D and manufacturing bases, and ring-link transmission channels.

 

By anchoring the localization of the supply chain, talent chain, investment chain, and industrial chain, it aims to build a citywide integrated platform for computing power and equipment under the layout of “One Horizontal, One Vertical, Three Zones, Multiple Parks”, featuring “Advanced Energy + Advanced Parks”.

 

To date, the Datong Super Energy Complex has achieved initial scale in energy, equipment, network, and other core resources.

 

It has reserved 1 million square meters of park space and equipment manufacturing lines, 2,000 kilometers of high-speed network connecting to the Beijing capital region, and hundreds of millions of cubic meters of water-based natural cooling and recycling capacity.

 

In terms of energy, 2.1 GW of green power resources have been secured.

 

Once fully operational, they will generate approximately 3 billion kWh of green electricity annually, enabling carbon neutrality for the above scenarios by 2030 and supporting Datong in building a world-class infrastructure industrial cluster.
