Solutions to Tackle Power and Carbon Reduction Challenges in the Green Computing Wave
Against the backdrop of the booming digital economy, the global demand for computing power is soaring. However, this has also resulted in a continuous growth in power consumption and carbon emissions. According to data from the Communication Network Operation Professional Committee of the China Communications Enterprise Association, in 2023, the total electricity consumption of data centers in China exceeded 150 billion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 15%. It is estimated that the electricity consumption of data centers nationwide will reach approximately 200 billion kWh by 2025. Facing the new round of challenges in electricity and carbon emission reduction, Far East Smart Energy Co., Ltd. (referred to as: Far East Co., Ltd.; Stock Code: 600869), backed by 40 years of experience in the power and energy industry, adheres to the planning and construction of a green, low-carbon, economical, and convenient energy structure, and provides timely and high-quality products and services to contribute to the sustainable development of global AI computing power.
Laying "Green Arteries" for Low-Loss Power Transmission
In terms of power transmission, Far East Intelligent Cable Network has developed various types and specifications of intelligent cable products to meet the construction and operation and maintenance needs of large data centers, ensuring the safe, stable, and efficient operation of the new generation of large data centers. The company has participated in the construction of over 200 data center-related projects, including China Telecom's Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Data Center, Alibaba Cloud Data Center in Ulanqab, China Aviation Information Data Center, and Baidu Cloud Computing Center in Yangquan.
The large-section steel-cored high-conductivity aluminum stranded wire developed by the company has a 2% higher conductivity than traditional wires, saving 2,500 kWh of electricity per kilometer annually, which is enough for an average household for 10 years! It withstood the tests of moderately strong corrosive foundations and heavy ice coating in the Gansu section of the "Xinjiang Electricity Transmission to Chongqing" UHV project, directly minimizing the transmission loss of the project.
With the continuous innovation of photovoltaic cell technology and the expanding scale of energy storage systems, more stringent requirements have been put forward for the performance, reliability, and innovation of adaptive cables. Far East Intelligent Cable Network has deeply engaged in the photovoltaic and energy storage fields, launching full-scenario cable solutions. Its full range of products covers multiple standard models and has taken the lead in obtaining authoritative certifications such as CQC, CE, TÜV, and UL in the industry, providing solid support for the global energy transition.
Full Industry Chain Layout from "Materials, Cells, Systems to Integration"
The Intelligent Battery Division of Far East Co., Ltd. targets the high energy consumption pain point of computing power centers, with technological innovation as the core driving force, to build persified solutions.
Far East Energy Storage assisted in the construction of an independent energy storage power station with a total scale of 200MW/800MWh in Hengshui, Hebei Province, providing complete energy storage system equipment and full-process services. The project successfully connected to the grid and operated smoothly at the beginning of 2025. As the largest single string-type energy storage power station in the country, after being connected to the grid, it improves the absorption capacity of new energy such as wind power and photovoltaics in the regional power grid through peak shaving and valley filling by energy storage equipment, contributing to the green and low-carbon development of the regional economy.
Not long ago, Far East Energy Storage officially released three new products: PowerSTROM 7000 liquid-cooled energy storage container, PowerPLANT 520 PLUS outdoor liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet, and PowerX S8 PRO boost stacked battery. It also showcased Far East Battery's 18/21 series cylindrical products, 314Ah prismatic cells, ultra-thin high-conductivity copper foil, intelligent submarine cables, energy storage cables, and other core supporting products, fully demonstrating Far East's full industry chain layout capability from "materials - cells - systems - integration".
Synergy between Computing Power and Electricity to Facilitate a Green Computing Power Future
In July 2024, four departments including the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Special Action Plan for the Green and Low-Carbon Development of Data Centers", which mentioned that by the end of 2025, a two-way synergy mechanism between computing power and electricity will be initially formed, and the proportion of green electricity in newly built data centers at national hub nodes will exceed 80%.
In the track of green computing power and low-carbon transformation, Far East Co., Ltd. is relying on its full industry chain technology matrix to reshape energy rules and promote the construction and development of green data centers. With technology as a spear, it helps the in-depth integration of computing power and electricity, and promotes the green breakthrough path for global AI computing power.
