TREE NEWS update: China’s computing power platform has achieved unified national monitoring and coordination, with a “one network, one chessboard, one integration” framework now basically in place, the 2026 China Computing Power Conference in Langfang, Hebei, heard. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued its 15th Five-Year Plan for the information and communications industry, calling for faster construction of a national integrated computing network with a “hub-region-edge” multi-tier system and deeper automated monitoring and supply-demand matching.
China’s National Computing Power Network Takes Shape, MIIT Pushes Integration
The significance lies less in the monitoring milestone than in the coordination layer: a single national dispatch framework turns computing power into something closer to a planned utility than a fragmented market, which matters most for provincial data centres and the operators being matched to demand. MIIT's plan language signals that automated supply-demand matching, not raw capacity, is the next battleground. Whether the hub-region-edge tiering actually shifts utilisation away from coastal hubs toward interior capacity is the open question to watch.
