China Southern Power Grid (CSG) recently completed testing of a green, low-carbon mobile computing container in Guiyang, Guizhou Province. Built around a 40-foot standard shipping container with a modular design, the equipment offers flexible relocation, rapid deployment, and plug-and-play connectivity, pioneering a new model for green and intensive computing infrastructure development.
Addressing key challenges of traditional data centers—such as lengthy construction cycles, site constraints, and high energy consumption—the container integrates high-density computing units, intelligent temperature control, and power adaptation systems. Employing a hybrid cooling solution combining liquid cooling and free cooling, and making full use of Guizhou's cool climate, the system achieves significantly better energy efficiency than conventional computer rooms.
The core innovation of the container lies in its integrated electricity-carbon-computing operation mechanism. It can be rapidly connected to substations and zero-carbon industrial parks, shortening the construction cycle from years to months. As a flexible, adjustable load, it can also participate in real-time peak-valley regulation of the power grid, improving overall energy efficiency.
As a national hub node in the "East Data, West Computing" initiative, Guizhou now boasts over 98% intelligent computing capacity. The testing of this container marks an important step in CSG's efforts to advance electricity-carbon-computing industrial synergy. In May this year, CSG completed China's first-ever electricity-carbon-computing synergy matching transaction in Guizhou. Going forward, the container will be integrated into the company's Electricity-Carbon-Computing Synergy Operations Platform, delivering value in supporting the "East Data, West Computing" initiative and providing low-carbon computing power.
