Core Insights - The article highlights the growing importance of computing power as a core infrastructure in the AI era, with Wuhu emerging as a significant player in China's computing power landscape [1][4]. Industry Overview - Wuhu is part of the national "East Data West Computing" project, designated as one of the ten major data center clusters, with the "Chinese Digital Island" being a key area for intelligent computing infrastructure development [1][4]. - The demand for computing power is increasing globally, driven by the AI wave, with Wuhu's computing power industry entering a "harvest period" as major enterprises invest in the region [3][12]. Recent Developments - Wuhu's computing power public service platform recently connected with four national platforms and added six new data centers, enhancing its capabilities [2]. - The Wuhu cluster has integrated 34 data centers, accumulating a total of nearly 640P of general computing power, 26,000P of intelligent computing power, 33.3P of supercomputing power, and 2,070 qubits of quantum computing power, making it a leader in the nation [3][10]. Strategic Importance - Wuhu's strategic location near the East China power grid and its energy sufficiency make it an attractive site for data centers, which require substantial energy resources [6][8]. - The region's low latency network infrastructure supports high-demand applications such as AI inference and e-commerce, positioning Wuhu as a preferred choice for industries in the Yangtze River Delta [9][10]. Economic Impact - Wuhu's GDP surpassed 500 billion yuan for the first time, with a growth rate of 6.4%, driven significantly by the automotive manufacturing sector, which has seen a 20% increase in value added [12]. - The city aims to diversify its economy beyond automotive manufacturing by developing new sectors, including digital economy and intelligent robotics, with the computing power industry at its core [12][13]. Competitive Landscape - Wuhu faces competition from other cities in the Yangtze River Delta, which are also ramping up their computing power initiatives, leading to an increasingly competitive environment [14][15]. - Despite its advantages, Wuhu must address challenges such as talent shortages and higher operational costs compared to western hubs, as well as improve inter-regional coordination in computing power utilization [15].

（文/观察者网 吕栋） 近日，美国不再限制英伟达H20芯片对华出口的消息引发关注，也再度凸显外部算力供给的不稳定性。事实上，在大模型催生的巨大算力需求下，中国企业 高价购买"阉割版"英伟达芯片并非长久之际，如何获取持续稳定够用的算力供给，已成为保证业务连续性的关键。 4月10日，国内云计算领域的两场大会成为行业焦点。 一个是2025中国移动云智算大会。中国移动董事长杨杰表示，以数智化为主要特征的新一轮科技革命和产业变革深入发展，数据成为新生产要素，算力成为 新基础设施和基础能源，人工智能成为新生产工具，推动经济社会从"互联网+"、"5G+"向"AI+"加速转变，为算网基础设施演进带来新机遇、提出新要求。 他提到，未来3年，中国智能算力规模增长将超过2.5倍，年均复合增速近40%。同时，推理算力需求将超过训练算力需求，推理算力年复合增速将达到训练 算力的近4倍，到2028年，推理算力规模将超过训练算力规模。中国移动将建设超大规模的"算力工厂"，推动万卡级、千卡级智算中心的倍增扩容，积极开 展十万卡智算中心前瞻研究。 一直以来，由于芯片制造工艺受限，国产芯片的单卡算力比不上英伟达，这也是国内行业产生算力焦虑、大量 ...
