Beijing, June 17, 2026 — The China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) opened a compute‑power–power coordination joint verification base to provide routine validation for deeper integration of the national integrated computing network and China’s new power system. The facility groups four core capabilities: a full‑scenario testing platform for structured, controlled trials of data‑center green‑power direct connection, source–grid–load–storage integration, DC supply systems, new transformers and other emerging technologies and equipment; a simulation sandbox offering digital replicas of typical compute‑power coordination business scenarios to test load forecasting, coordinated dispatch strategies and virtual power plant operations; a trusted compute‑power data platform aggregating test and simulation data to enable end‑to‑end evidentiary recording and traceability; and an industry incubation space to speed intellectual‑property conversion and commercial deployment.
