Belém, Brazil, November 11-21 – The 30th Conference of the Parties (COP30) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is being held in Belém, a rainforest city in the Amazon Basin. On November 11 (local time), Mr. Ju Jing, Founder and CEO of BCI Group, was invited to speak at a UN high-level press briefing during COP30. He highlighted China's new 2035 Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) announced at the UN General Assembly in September: by 2035, China aims to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions across its entire economy by 7-10% from the peak level. The share of non-fossil energy in total energy consumption is targeted to exceed 30%, with the total installed capacity of wind and solar power reaching at least six times the 2020 level, striving for 3.6 billion kilowatts.

In this process, Mr. Ju emphasized that computing power infrastructure enterprises must pay greater attention to fulfilling their responsibilities and obligations for carbon reduction and net-zero emissions. Only by persisting with the vertical integration of key industrial chain elements—such as energy, computing power, and equipment—within host cities, and by promoting deep integration with these localities, can the computing power infrastructure industry achieve sustainable development within the framework of national climate commitments. This approach also facilitates industrial upgrading and green transformation for the host cities.

The "Datong Practice" represents the journey of BCI Group's founding team over the past seven years in Datong. Starting from scratch and overcoming significant challenges, the team adhered to the operating principles of long-termism and sustainable development. They have been deeply involved in the entire process of building Datong's computing power infrastructure industry—from nonexistence to establishment, from weakness to strength, from a single site to a multi-county layout, and from a solitary industry to a diversified industrial chain. Throughout this process, BCI Group has remained committed to its ESG responsibilities and the vertical integration industrial model. It aims to build a new generation of zero-carbon computing power infrastructure industrial clusters, assisting Datong—a traditional coal city—in its transformation into an emerging computing power hub.

Renewable Energy Integration: BCI Group's computing power infrastructure utilizes a self-built, integrated "wind-solar-storage" power generation base located within 20 kilometers. By directly connecting renewable energy to the load side of the computing infrastructure, it achieves computing-power synergy and reduces reliance on fossil fuels. Calculated over a 25-year cycle, the green electricity from BCI Group's Datong Super Energy Complex "wind-solar-storage" base will supply over 80 billion kilowatt-hours to local computing centers, cumulatively reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 100 million tons, realizing genuinely "zero-carbon computing power."

Vertical Integration Innovation: Through capability-building and technological innovation at the hyperscale zero-carbon campus level, BCI Group achieves comprehensive waste heat utilization. It collects large volumes of high-value thermal energy on a massive scale and innovatively combines surplus green energy—initially allocated to the computing campus—with waste heat from computing operations. This creates a heat source supplied for local community heating, enabling the computing infrastructure to give back to the community. In water resource management, BCI Group has implemented the industry's first surface water diversion project for computing infrastructure in Datong, achieving environmentally friendly water recycling on the infrastructure side.

Local Sustainable Integration: BCI Group has deployed various prefabricated electromechanical equipment modules in Datong, injecting new industrial momentum into this city with a strong traditional manufacturing foundation. It is also cultivating a local workforce skilled in energy, computing, and prefabricated construction modules. To date, various BCI business units have employed nearly a thousand local personnel in Datong, building a local workforce proficient in energy-computing integration and providing sustained talent support for the long-term development of Datong's computing power infrastructure industry. BCI Group insists on locally registering and paying taxes for all its operational entities in Datong, actively participates in local strategic investment promotion for the industrial chain, and contributes key forces to promoting the vertical integration of Datong's computing power infrastructure industry.

Global Net-Zero Cooperation: BCI Group has participated in the UN Climate Change Conference for three consecutive sessions. At COP28 in Dubai, it launched the Super Energy Complex, a green and sustainable product for computing power infrastructure. At COP29 in Baku, it introduced to the global audience the integrated vertical solution spanning energy, campuses, and equipment from China's Datong computing power infrastructure industry. This year in Belém, BCI Group will present to the world the on-the-ground implementation of its vertically integrated computing power infrastructure solution in Datong.

BCI Group hopes that the climate action achievements and ESG innovations accumulated through the "Datong Practice" will encourage more players in the computing power infrastructure industry chain to jointly contribute to China's new NDC targets. Furthermore, it aims to demonstrate and implement an industrial solution from China, from Datong, to support computing power equity development and climate governance responsibilities in more developing countries worldwide.
