Anchor Wang Yan: "The outline of the 15th Five Year Plan proposes to promote the coordinated layout of green electricity and computing power. As the first green computing power collaborative pilot province in China, Qinghai, with its unique advantages in clean energy, continues to promote the coordinated development of green computing power from key technology mode innovation to top-level design and institutional mechanism construction. How does this continuous supply of green electricity achieve coordinated development with the surging computing power

Reporter Wang Xiaolong from the headquarters: "On the large screen of the Qinghai Province Clean Energy and Green Computing Power Dispatch Center, the proportion of clean energy generation in the province and the annual trend of power generation for the day are displayed. Here, the 'where' and 'where' of each green power can be clearly traced. The functions of this center are far more than that, it can also achieve real-time dispatch of green computing power and green electricity. Simply put, this is the 'smart brain' that responds in real-time to 'computing power collaboration'.

Qinghai has abundant solar, wind, and hydropower resources, and the 'green content' of computing power in the province is also increasing year by year. Last year, the consumption of green electricity by computing power centers in Qinghai Province increased by more than 40% year-on-year. For example, this table shows the use of green electricity by several major computing power centers in Qinghai Province, with one big data center using solar, wind, and hydroelectric power accounting for more than 97% of the total. According to staff from the State Grid Monitoring and Dispatch Center, the main computing power centers in Qinghai Province used green electricity for more than 90% of the year last year, reducing carbon emissions by 158000 tons.

Green electricity has the characteristic of 'watching the weather to eat'. For example, photovoltaics have a peak output from 9am to 5pm. However, if the power grid cannot absorb so much green electricity in real time, it will cause waste. Through the collaborative dispatch platform of computing power, the computing power center can adjust the time period of electricity consumption to the peak of green electricity output, and vice versa, reduce the consumption of green electricity during periods of low green electricity output. This scheduling is also known as' peak shaving and valley filling '.

The exploration of 'computing power collaboration' in Qinghai is not limited to within the province. In the past two days, the staff of the dispatch center are conducting a cross provincial real-time computing power dispatch experiment from Xining, Qinghai to Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Simply put, it is to serve the smart livelihood of new first tier cities thousands of miles away with Qinghai's green computing power. What can this cross provincial computing power migration bring? When the data center in the east encounters peak electricity consumption, high electricity prices, or insufficient local green electricity, Qinghai can undertake its real-time computing power tasks, and computing power tasks can be migrated in real time like 'moving'. Where there is more green electricity and low electricity prices, computing power will flow to. By using a high proportion of green electricity, the operating costs of enterprises can be significantly reduced. This experiment will also be completed within this year
