Sinking Servers into the Sea? They're Dead Serious About This

Sinking Servers into the Sea: A Serious Undertaking The article details China's launch of the world's first offshore, directly wind-powered, subsea data center in the East China Sea near Shanghai. This 1.95 billion yuan project houses over 2,000 servers in a submerged 10-meter-deep module. It is directly powered by a nearby offshore wind farm (over 95% green energy) and cooled by seawater. This innovative approach tackles the two core challenges of data centers: massive power consumption and heat dissipation. It achieves an exceptional Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.15, far better than China's national average of 1.48, saving an estimated 61 million kWh of electricity annually. It also uses no freshwater and requires significantly less land. The concept builds upon earlier experiments, like Microsoft's Project Natick, which proved servers could reliably operate underwater with lower failure rates due to a stable, inert environment. The Shanghai project advances the model by co-locating with wind farms, simultaneously solving both the power source and cooling source problems in an economically viable way. This integration reduces infrastructure costs and eliminates grid transmission losses for the electricity used on-site. Looking ahead, the vision is to integrate data center modules directly into the foundations of future large-scale, deep-sea wind turbines. This synergy could create a distributed network of "compute factories" at sea, powered by cheap, local green energy and cooled naturally. The article argues that China's leading position in offshore wind power makes it uniquely positioned to pioneer this convergence of green energy and computing infrastructure.

From Spring Festival Gala Robots to the Computing Power Energy War: Why Does China Hold the 'Trump Card' in the AI Era?

China's 2026 Spring Festival Gala showcased a breakthrough in embodied AI, featuring robots from companies like Magic Atom, Unitree, and Galaxy General performing complex tasks such as dancing, martial arts, and comedy. This demonstrated China's advanced progress in robotics and AI physical integration. Meanwhile, the U.S. faces an escalating energy crisis, with electricity prices rising 36% by early 2026. Training AI models like GPT-4 consumes power equivalent to 100,000 households annually, and U.S. data centers are projected to use 600,000 GWh by 2028. Aging infrastructure, fragmented grids, and lengthy approval processes for new transmission lines exacerbate the problem. In contrast, China has built a strategic advantage through decades of infrastructure investment. It operates 45 ultra-high-voltage (UHV) power transmission projects, spanning 40,000 kilometers, efficiently delivering clean energy from the west to eastern data centers. Renewable energy accounts for over 60% of China’s power capacity, with 40% of electricity coming from green sources. China also dominates transformer production, holding 60% of global capacity. While the U.S. excels in AI algorithms, China’s robust energy infrastructure—UHV grids, renewable energy, and manufacturing capacity—provides a foundational edge in the AI era, turning energy into a critical competitive asset.
