Huawei unveiled its grid-interactive AIDC solution, setting a new paradigm for AI infrastructure to maximize tokens per watt. Hou Jinlong, Director of the Board of Huawei and President of Huawei Digital Power, delivered the opening speech at the summit. He shared four insights on architectural innovation and systematic design to address AIDC construction challenges such as power acquisition, power quality, rack power supply and heat dissipation, and engineering delivery. First, innovative power architecture and liquid cooling ensure stable power supply and efficient heat dissipation, delivering comprehensive reliability and efficiency. Second, a multi-layer hybrid energy storage system absorbs local power fluctuations, enhancing AIDC power quality and grid-friendliness. Third, electricity-compute synergy and supply-consumption interaction enable AIDCs to transform from rigid loads to an integral part of the new power system. Fourth, construction mode innovation and modular, prefabricated, and product-based delivery significantly shorten the lead time.

The latest CKGSB Investor Sentiment Survey points to cautious investor sentiment in China’s A-share market in Q3 2026, even as earnings at listed companies have begun to recover. During the May to September 2026 survey period, respondents lowered their expectations for A-share market gains, reduced expected returns and showed less willingness to invest. 58.6% expected A-share prices to rise, down 5.2 percentage points from April 2026. The expected rate of return fell 1.8 percentage points to negative 0.7%. The pullback was sharpest for direct stock investment: the net proportion seeking to increase stock holdings fell 7.3 percentage points to 10.7%; the corresponding figure for equity funds declined 1.2 percentage points to 13.4%.Trading activity in China’s A-share market continued to rise. From December 2024 to August 2026, turnover ratios rose from 2.39 to 4.2 for the Shanghai Composite Index and from 5.84 to 8.5 for the Shenzhen Composite Index. Price-to-book ratios, however, rose only modestly—from 1.13 to 1.25 in Shanghai and from 1.93 to 2.4 in Shenzhen. Liu Jing, CKGSB Professor of Accounting and Finance and leader of the survey, interprets this mix as evidence of sharp divergence among investors rather than broad-based optimism, with investors divided over whether

Mr. Hou Jinlong, Director of the Board of Huawei and President of Huawei Digital Power, stated in the opening speech that decarbonization, electrification, digitalization, and intelligence have become the long-term trends of global energy transition. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to the energy transition. Different regions and economies face varying and structural complex challenges. In regions with high renewable energy penetration, the focus is on system safety. In emerging economies, the focus is on ensuring power supply and reducing costs. In underdeveloped regions, the focus is on inclusive access to electricity. The integration of grid-forming technology with AI enables renewable energy to achieve low cost, high reliability, sustainability, and supply security. This provides a brand-new, replicable, and feasible solution for energy transition. Huawei Digital Power is committed to working with all partners to promote the vision of “grid forming everywhere and AI for everywhere” and build a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable digital power industry ecosystem.

Zhou Jianjun stated: “Electricity is essential for computing. Today, in the AI era, the startup, shutdown, and load fluctuations of a large AIDC campus can all impact grid operations.” He emphasized that as the penetration of renewable energy continues to rise, the power grid itself is also evolving, with local grid strength declining and volatility and uncertainty increasing. Future AIDCs must not only adapt to weak grids and maintain stable operation during grid fluctuations, but also support the grid and become a key “grid-friendly” node. Therefore, the integration of generation, grid, load, and storage has become an inevitable choice for AIDC development.”
