Alibaba YRD Intelligent Computing Base (阿里巴巴长三角智能计算基地) is a data center project in Jiaxing, China, operated by Alibaba Cloud (阿里云长三角(嘉善)信息科技有限公司). It is operational and expanding. The operator has not published a capacity figure, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
Latest change on record: moved to expanding on 20 July 2025. Record last checked against its sources on 19 October 2026.
This project is built or running, so every gate counts as passed.
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.
Qingpu-Wujiang-Jiashan holds 6 active projects with 0 MW of planned IT load between them, and Alibaba YRD Intelligent Computing Base (阿里巴巴长三角智能计算基地) has no published figure so it sits outside that ranking. Of those, 2 are operational, 3 are operational and expanding and 1 is at the land and permitting stage. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Qingpu-Wujiang-Jiashan, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
Alibaba has 4 others in China tracked by ArusGrid, including Alibaba Cloud Western Cloud Computing Center and Data Service Base, Alibaba Cloud Ulanqab Data Center and Alibaba Cloud Xuanhua Data Centre (阿里云宣化数据中心). It sits on the Jiashan Economic and Technological Development Zone, Xitang (西塘镇) campus. No tenant has been disclosed, which is normal for colocation and says nothing about occupancy.
The build is phased. Two buildings delivered and in operation is operational with a 2025 target; Remaining buildings of 10 planned is under construction. The dated record runs from under construction on 13 October 2023 to operational and expanding on 20 July 2025. The money on record is CN¥14.3bn as of October 2023, the announced investment. Power comes from State Grid Jiashan through a dedicated substation at 220 kV (reported, unconfirmed).

Running capacity. The site is operational or expanding. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.
Designed for a 10,000-card AI cluster (万卡级智算集群) at full build.
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.
