Jinkai New Energy Ulanqab 496.8MW Green Intelligent Computing Centre (金开新能乌兰察布496.8MW绿色智算中心项目) is a data center project in Ulanqab, China, operated by Jinkai New Energy (金开新能, SSE 600821). It is at the land and permitting stage. The operator has not published a capacity figure, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.

Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.
Ulanqab holds 18 active projects with 1,262 MW of planned IT load between them, and Jinkai New Energy Ulanqab 496.8MW Green Intelligent Computing Centre (金开新能乌兰察布496.8MW绿色智算中心项目) has no published figure so it sits outside that ranking. Of those, 4 are operational, 4 are operational and expanding, 1 is under construction, 2 are at the land and permitting stage and 7 are announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Ulanqab, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
It is the only Jinkai New Energy project ArusGrid tracks. It sits on the Ulanqab campus. No tenant has been disclosed, which is normal for colocation and says nothing about occupancy.
The stage was recorded as at the land and permitting stage on 31 August 2026.
The US export control position for advanced AI chips in China, as of 7 October 2026, is recorded as “Licence required, presumption of denial, case-by-case review for H200-class chips since 15 January 2026”.

Named a green intelligent computing (智算) centre. No AI tenant named.
A party to this project (its operator, that operator's group, a funder, or a confirmed client) is headquartered in China or Macau or has an ultimate parent there. US rules require a licence for advanced AI chips destined to such entities wherever they are located. This describes the rule and says nothing about whether a licence was sought, granted or refused. Criteria are published on the Methodology page.
