美国缺电研究：数据中心建设重塑电力格局 20260226 摘要 市场对数据中心投资的叙事经历了三个阶段：从北美大厂资本开支指引 形成万亿美元投资共识，到产业链排产与供给紧张的交叉验证，再到对 ROI 与应用落地的担忧。近期，产业替代趋势、Token 调用量上行以及 特朗普的煤电表态强化了"电力约束"逻辑。 美国"缺电"的本质是数据中心资本开支预期增强引发电力系统负荷与 供给矛盾。2025 年美国峰值负荷预计 829GW，未来 5 年预计增长 166GW。实际需求（备案量 245GW）高于机构预测，稳定电源投运不 足，电网输电能力不足。 尽管存在 ROI 争议，市场当前更关注 AI 应用侧的 Token 调用量、英伟 达的出片与供给表现以及数据中心备案量等可观测指标，以验证需求强 度和资本开支的实际规模。 当前交易重点集中在燃气轮机供应链、火电供应链以及电力设备链条。 部分电力设备龙头按常规口径已反映到 2027 年业绩约 30 倍估值，市 场可能进一步按照 2028 年 30 倍进行定价，但更可能呈现高位震荡特 征。 Q&A 2025 年以来，市场对"美国缺电"主题的认知与交易主线经历了哪些阶段性 变化，核心 ...

Core Viewpoint - The global rush to invest $3 trillion in AI infrastructure raises questions about the necessity and effectiveness of such investments, as highlighted by Zhao Haijun, co-CEO of SMIC, during the company's 2025 annual financial report [1][3]. Investment Trends - Global AI infrastructure investment is projected to exceed $650 billion this year, with cumulative investments potentially surpassing $3 trillion by 2028, which is larger than Germany's GDP in 2025 [3]. - The urgency to invest stems from a fear of falling behind in the AI "second industrial revolution" [3]. Industry Concerns - Major tech companies like Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon are preparing for future competition using resources accumulated over the past decade, indicating a trend of blind expansion driven by collective panic [5]. - The rapid obsolescence of high-performance GPUs, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars, poses a significant economic challenge, as their effective lifespan is much shorter than anticipated [5][7]. Economic Misalignment - The economic lifespan of chips is often only half of their physical lifespan, leading to faster depreciation and longer payback periods for investments in data centers [10]. - This phenomenon of "rapid obsolescence" is becoming a norm in the industry, raising concerns about the sustainability of such investments [8][10]. Planning and Utilization Issues - There is a lack of strategic planning regarding the deployment of data centers, including site selection, chip deployment, energy consumption, and maintenance [12]. - The current investment climate is driven more by hot money, political performance, and industry trends rather than sound planning and rational decision-making [12]. Financial Risks - The largest tech companies have easier access to financing, which allows them to absorb risks that smaller investors cannot, potentially leading to a misalignment of financial burdens [13]. - Questions remain about who will ultimately bear the $3 trillion cost of these investments and whether they will yield the expected revenue growth [13][15]. Call for Rational Investment - Zhao Haijun emphasizes the need for rationality in technology investments, warning against the potential for future investments to become a financial joke if not approached thoughtfully [15][17]. - The industry must consider how much to invest and whether current projects will remain relevant in the future, as the current enthusiasm may lead to a bubble if not managed properly [15][17].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses unprecedented measures taken by Trump to accelerate the U.S. economy, with a focus on coordinated fiscal, monetary, and credit policies aimed at stimulating growth ahead of the midterm elections [1] Group 1: Fiscal Policy Shift - The fiscal policy has shifted from tightening to injecting nearly $200 billion into the economy through the tax reform signed by Trump in July [2][3] - The average tariff rate is not expected to rise, and there may even be a decrease if certain tariffs are deemed illegal by the Supreme Court [2] - Tax cuts introduced in the tax and spending bill will provide new or expanded deductions, leading to a dual stimulus effect with higher take-home pay for workers and tax refunds [2] Group 2: Credit Policy Relaxation - Regulatory changes have led to a loosening of credit restrictions, allowing banks to hold more U.S. Treasury securities and reducing barriers to mergers [3] - The government has ordered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities, which could lower mortgage rates by 0.1 to 0.25 percentage points, boosting housing demand [4][3] Group 3: Monetary Policy Changes - Trump is attempting to exert control over the Federal Reserve, advocating for lower interest rates to align with his economic policies [5] - The Federal Reserve is expected to lower interest rates from the current range of 3.5% to 3.75% by 0.25 percentage points, moving towards a more stimulative stance [5] Group 4: Long-term Consequences - The current policy approach may lead to a significant increase in debt-to-GDP ratio, potentially exceeding 100%, which could impoverish future generations and pose a risk of a debt crisis [6][8] - The relaxation of credit and regulatory measures in an already high-valuation environment could ultimately lead to a market crash [7][8]
