Along the Shitang Road in Shaoguan High tech Zone, a brand new computing power industry park is about to emerge. On October 15, 2026, the first phase of the Guangdong Shuntong Big Data Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area Computer Collaborative Integration Intelligent Computing Center project was officially registered, with a total investment of 2.475 billion yuan in computing infrastructure projects landing in northern Guangdong, opening up a new channel for computing power supply to the digital economy of the Greater Bay Area.

Large scale intelligent computing cluster landing in northern Guangdong

The total area of the project is 64222 square meters, with a total construction area of 112571.8 square meters. The planned IT load is 82.5 megawatts, and it can support 33000 standard racks. It is currently the largest single intelligent computing infrastructure project in northern Guangdong. The project will be developed in multiple phases, with a total investment of 750 million yuan in Phase 1.1. After completion, it will provide 25 megawatts of IT load and 10000 standard racks. Among them, the 3000 racks in Phase 1.1.1 can be put into operation as early as the first half of 2027, quickly meeting the computing power needs of the Greater Bay Area.

The Phase 1.2 project has an investment of 1.725 billion yuan and will complete the construction of the remaining 23000 standard racks, ultimately forming a complete large-scale intelligent computing cluster. The supporting outdoor comprehensive pipe gallery, park roads, green landscape, and operation and maintenance buildings are planned synchronously, fully constructed in accordance with the national A-level intelligent computing center standards, which can meet the stable operation needs of various high computing load scenarios such as large model training and AI inference rendering.

Activate regional industrial value through computer collaborative mode

The project is located in Shaoguan High tech Zone, relying on the abundant green power resources in northern Guangdong. It naturally has the advantage of coordinated development of computing and electricity, which can significantly reduce the electricity cost of computing power operation and absorb the surplus renewable electricity in the local area. The project is scheduled to officially start construction in October 2026 and complete the entire construction in June 2028. After completion, it will be directly connected to the computing power dispatch network of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area, providing low latency and cost-effective computing power support for AI enterprises in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other places.

In the third quarter of 2026, the single quarter investment in the national intelligent computing industry has reached 728.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 34.4%. As the most active region in China's digital economy, the Greater Bay Area has a long-term gap in computing power. The landing of this intelligent computing center will fill the key gaps in the computing infrastructure of northern Guangdong, promote the deep synergy between computing resources in the Greater Bay Area and green power resources in northern Guangdong, and inject new momentum into the digital transformation of regional industries.

The low beep of servers will ring day and night in this park, and a continuous stream of computing power will flow along the high-speed network to the digital industry scene in the Greater Bay Area. The green power resources in northern Guangdong are being transformed into the core driving force supporting regional digital economic growth.Editor/Cheng Liting
