This project is built or running, so every gate counts as passed.

Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.

China, 2026-10-12. China coverage is a pilot of one cluster, Zhongwei in Ningxia, entered on 12 October 2026 from Chinese-language primary and state press sources. Other Chinese hubs are not yet covered, so no China total here describes the country. Many Chinese projects publish rack counts and no megawatts. ArusGrid records the rack count and leaves capacity blank rather than convert it.

Where it sits

Horinger and Hohhot holds 10 active projects with 298 MW of planned IT load between them, and China Telecom Cloud Computing Inner Mongolia Information Park has no published figure so it sits outside that ranking. Of those, 3 are operational, 1 is operational and expanding, 1 is under construction, 2 are at the land and permitting stage and 3 are announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Horinger and Hohhot, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.

China Telecom has 12 others in China tracked by ArusGrid, including China Telecom Smart Cloud Base, Huailai Park (中国电信智云基地怀来园区), China Telecom Smart Cloud Base, Zhangbei Park (中国电信智慧云基地张北园区) and China Telecom Qingyang Computing Center. It sits on the China Telecom Inner Mongolia Information Park. The named user of the compute is Baidu (reported, unconfirmed).

The stage was recorded as operational on 18 November 2014. The money on record is CN¥17.3bn as of November 2014, the announced investment. Power comes from 华电新能源 through a renewable power purchase agreement (reported, unconfirmed). Cooling uses direct liquid cooling.

The US export control position for advanced AI chips in China, as of 7 October 2026, is recorded as “Licence required, presumption of denial, case-by-case review for H200-class chips since 15 January 2026”. ArusGrid holds 11 public sources for this project, the latest dated 9 October 2026, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.

AI workloads

StatusConfirmed

Xinhua Finance (2026-08-22) says the park runs 16,000 PFLOPS of compute, of which 15,600 is intelligent computing.

Access to AI chips

GradeLicence required for a party

A party to this project (its operator, that operator's group, a funder, or a confirmed client) is headquartered in China or Macau or has an ultimate parent there. US rules require a licence for advanced AI chips destined to such entities wherever they are located. This describes the rule and says nothing about whether a licence was sought, granted or refused. Criteria are published on the Methodology page.

US licence required for this destination as enforcedYes
A party headquartered in China or Macau on the projectYes
Country-level export frameworkNo
A party named in a government authorisationNo
