China’s computing power construction is transitioning into a new phase, shifting from large-scale buildout to a stage of "balancing construction and utilization, and achieving efficient operation"

Odaily Odaily Planet Daily News With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the surging demand for computing power in more scenarios is also reshaping the supply structure of computing power. Industry insiders indicate that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China’s computing power construction focused on addressing the scale shortfall, leading to continuous growth in total computing power.

At the same time, issues such as a generally tight computing power supply, regional supply-demand mismatches, and high usage costs persist. Revitalizing existing computing power resources and ensuring supply are the primary challenges that need to be solved in the construction of a computing power network. Recently, China's three major telecommunications operators have successively launched Token package products aimed at both individuals and enterprises, which industry insiders regard as a further sign of the popularization of AI.

Experts suggest that in the next stage, the development of computing power will shift from large-scale construction to a new phase of "balancing construction and utilization, and achieving efficient operation." Improving the utilization rate of computing power and achieving its efficient scheduling have become inevitable requirements for promoting the development of the computing power network.
