China is taking steps to build a network to sell computing power and curb the growth of data centers. The state planner is conducting a nationwide assessment of the sector after a three-year data center building boom, which has led to a capacity glut and threatened the viability of thousands of local government-backed centers. Beijing is seeking to set up a national, state-run cloud service to harness surplus computing power, with the goal of standardizing interconnection of public computing power nationwide by 2028. The plan aims to address the issue of low utilization rates, estimated to be around 20-30%, and prevent resource wastage.
