- Inside Ulanqab, the city that became an AI compute hub
A Huashang Taolue feature republished by TMTPost traces how Ulanqab in Inner Mongolia, once known for potatoes, wind power and summer resorts, became a destination for AI data centers. It says that as of August 2026 the city had signed 109 compute projects with 172,000 P of capacity in operation, more than 95% of it intelligent compute, and over 500 billion yuan in total investment; DeepSeek plans to add 1GW of capacity there, part of it due to come online between late 2027 and early 2028. The piece attributes the draw for Huawei, Alibaba, Apple, ByteDance and Kuaishou to cheap green power at roughly 0.32 yuan per kWh, an average temperature of 4.3°C that allows a PUE below 1.2, and latency of under 5 milliseconds to Beijing.
