With the release of policy documents such as the "Action Plan for Accelerating the Construction of a New Type of Power System (2024-2027)," the "High-Quality Development Action Plan for Computing Infrastructure," and the "Implementation Opinions on Deeply Implementing the 'East Data West Computing' Project to Accelerate the Construction of a National Integrated Computing Power Network," the integrated business value under the theme of "computing power + energy" has been further highlighted. To seize the strategic opportunities in the field of green computing power, the People's Government of Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture (hereinafter referred to as "Changji Prefecture Government") has joined hands with Jin Kai New Energy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Jin Kai New Energy"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the listed company, Jin Kai New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Jin Kai Limited"), and the Xinjiang Branch of the National Supercomputing Guangzhou Center (Xinjiang Western Digital Technology Co., Ltd.) (hereinafter referred to as "Western Digital"), to sign a cooperation framework agreement. This marks the official launch of the Xinjiang Branch of the National Supercomputing Guangzhou Center Changji Smart Computing Center project (hereinafter referred to as "Changji Smart Computing Center"). The aim is to promote the comprehensive upgrade and sustainable development of the local industry chain through the deep integration of computing power and energy.

Government, School, and Enterprise Collaboration to Forge a New Chapter

The main investor of this project is Jin Kai Limited, with an estimated total investment of no more than 451 million yuan, and the initial construction of computing power is expected to reach 2,000P; the planned computing power is expected to reach 5,000P. This investment plan demonstrates the company's foresight in new technologies and digital strategies, injecting strong momentum into the high-quality development of the local economy.

In this cooperation, the Changji Prefecture Government fully leverages its advantages as a new energy base, wind and light resources, climate characteristics, and industrial policies, providing solid policy guarantees and resource support for the project's implementation. Jin Kai Limited takes on the responsibility of continuously advancing new energy projects, actively supporting the development of green energy. Western Digital, with the strong technical support of Sun Yat-sen University, undertakes computing power application customer orders and actively explores diverse scenarios for computing power market applications. The main units perform their respective duties, completing the tripartite linkage of government, school, and enterprise, laying a solid foundation for the successful operation of the project.

"Two-Way Approach" of Computing Power and Energy

To ensure the consumption of computing power at the Changji Smart Computing Center, Jin Kai Limited plans to jointly establish a smart computing operation company with Western Digital and Guangzhou West Data Investment Service Partnership (Limited Partnership), which will be specifically responsible for the market operation of the Changji Smart Computing Center project.

At the same time, to encourage the implementation of this computing power industry project, the Changji Prefecture Government plans to provide support for Jin Kai Limited's new energy projects in accordance with the relevant regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region's "Notice on Further Leveraging the Advantages of Wind and Light Resources to Promote the High-Quality Development of Characteristic Industries" (Xinjiang Development and Reform Energy [2024] No. 139).

The Changji Prefecture Government serves as a strong backing, not only providing solid policy guarantees for cooperative entities such as Jin Kai New Energy but also highlighting the local government's high regard and firm support for the integrated development of new energy and computing power economy. This has injected strong momentum into the smooth progress of the project, helping the Changji Smart Computing Center project to accelerate towards success and opening the first chapter of the "two-way approach" of computing power and energy.

Creating a New Business Model and Seeking New Profit Growth Points

For Jin Kai New Energy, this cooperation is an important strategic layout around new technologies and digitalization. By obtaining new energy project indicators through the layout of the smart computing center in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, promoting the integration of computing power and energy, and exploring a replicable and broad market space new business model. It is not only a beneficial attempt for the company to seek new profit points but also lays a solid foundation for its continuous development in the future.Promoting the Perfection and Upgrading of the Industrial Chain

The implementation of the project will promote the rapid development of the local digital industry and facilitate the deep integration of artificial intelligence with the new energy industry, thereby enhancing and upgrading the local industrial chain. Through the exploration of industry-academia-research integration mechanisms, relying on artificial intelligence technology and in-depth cooperation with local universities, the three parties will engage in extensive collaboration in scientific research, student training, resource sharing, achievement transformation, and promoting high-level exchanges and cooperation between the eastern and western regions, thereby driving the integrated development of industry and education.

With the smooth progress of the "National Supercomputing Guangzhou Center Xinjiang Branch Changji Smart Computing Center Project," the Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture will usher in a new space for development. The close cooperation and joint efforts of the government, universities, and enterprises will provide strong momentum and support to achieve this goal.
