A promotion forum highlighting Inner Mongolia autonomous region's strengths in new energy and computing power was held on Jan 21 in Shenzhen city, South China's Guangdong province, bringing together representatives from more than 300 key enterprises from Inner Mongolia and Guangdong. 

The event aimed to deepen regional coordination between Inner Mongolia and the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area by promoting Inner Mongolia's favorable business environment, supporting policies, and distinctive industrial advantages, while facilitating cross-regional industrial dialogue.

Inner Mongolia accounts for over half of China's wind energy resources and more than one-fifth of the country's solar resources. It ranks first nationwide in installed new energy capacity, power generation, outbound electricity transmission, and energy storage capacity. The region also leads the country in power market regulation and offers the lowest electricity trading prices nationwide.

The region is also one of China's eight national computing power hub nodes and ranks among the top 10 data center clusters. Its total computing capacity has reached 210,000 petaFLOPS, including 190,000 petaFLOPS of intelligent computing – the highest in China.

At the forum, officials from several Inner Mongolia cities presented investment opportunities. Ordos reported attracting 104.7 billion yuan ($14.96 billion) in domestic investment in 2025, up 10 percent year-on-year, and pledged to accelerate the development of new energy and computing power.

Ulaanqab, a national integrated computing power hub node, noted its rapid shift toward intelligent computing and its growing role as a preferred off-site deployment base for AI large-model training, inviting Greater Bay Area partners to jointly build smart cities and advance digital transformation.

Inner Mongolia and Guangdong have long maintained close cooperation in industrial development, trade, and people-to-people exchanges. Since October last year, hundreds of Guangdong enterprises have visited Inner Mongolia, reaching a consensus on deepening cooperation in industries where both sides hold complementary advantages.

To date, Guangdong enterprises have developed 12.72 million kilowatts of new energy capacity in Inner Mongolia. In 2025, Inner Mongolia approved two additional market-based projects by Guangdong enterprises with a combined capacity of 800,000 kW. Cooperation in the digital economy and other key sectors has also delivered results.
