Core Viewpoint - Guangdong's "one kilowatt-hour economics" is exemplified by the city of Shaoguan, which is leveraging high-quality green electricity to establish itself as a computing power hub for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area [1][3]. Group 1: Economic and Operational Advantages - Shaoguan is part of the national "East Data West Computing" project and serves as the only national data center cluster in South China, supporting Guangdong's manufacturing strategy [3]. - The city offers the lowest electricity prices in Guangdong, with a cost of 0.134 RMB per kilowatt-hour lower than the Pearl River Delta, significantly reducing operational costs for data centers [3]. - By 2025, six data centers in Shaoguan are expected to consume over 170 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, a 751% increase year-on-year [3][4]. Group 2: Green Energy Integration - By the end of 2025, over 60% of Shaoguan's electricity generation will come from green energy, meaning that for every two kilowatt-hours consumed by data centers, one will be from clean energy sources [4]. - The energy consumption per unit of computing power in Shaoguan is 12% lower than the national average, achieving a balance of increased computing power without increasing carbon emissions [4]. Group 3: Industry Development Goals - Shaoguan aims to create a complete industrial chain encompassing upstream computing equipment manufacturing, midstream computing services, and downstream data applications [4]. - The integration of computing power and electricity is seen as a way to promote both ecological and economic development, fostering a virtuous cycle of "promoting production through computing and vice versa" [5].
