Beijing – (Special Correspondent / Web Desk) – Beijing aims to build a total computing capacity of around 200,000 petaflops by 2027 to accelerate the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital industries.

During a press briefing on Thursday, Zhang Jinrui, deputy director of the Digital Industry Division at the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, shared that the city plans to create a cross-regional computing network.

This includes developing large-scale computing clusters in nearby Hebei Province and Tianjin Municipality through collaborations with telecom providers and internet companies.

Beijing also intends to expand its computing supply corridors to Inner Mongolia, Ningxia, and Qinghai, gathering top-quality resources to support the training of foundational AI models.

One PFLOP, or petaflop, equals a one quadrillion floating-point operation per second.

In 2026, Beijing will also advance green transformations for 40 existing data centers, Zhang said.
