According to sources, DeepSeek plans to build a large-scale AI data center in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia, with new computing power capacity reaching 1GW. A portion of the computing power is expected to become operational by the end of next year or in early 2028. Meanwhile, the company also intends to lease additional computing power from other companies to supplement demand. Ulanqab's average annual temperature is about 4°C; the natural low-temperature environment helps reduce cooling costs for high-power consumption AI servers, making it an important consideration for data center site selection. Currently, this news has not yet been officially confirmed by DeepSeek.
