We often attribute breakthroughs in AI capabilities to chips and models. However, every time the model is trained and called, there is a computer room that continues to operate behind it, as well as electricity costs that continue to be generated. AI competition takes place not only on chips, but also on where electricity comes from, how to dissipate heat in the computer room, and how to schedule computing power. The Ulanqab Vision Galaxy Base was put into operation in August 2026. It uses an ultra-high ratio of green electricity. With a building size of 120,000 square meters, parallel capacity of 1 million cards, and 1 million P computing power, it has become the single AI data center with the strongest token production capacity in the world, setting a new record for the density of AI infrastructure. Zhang Lei, founder of Envision Technology Group, wants to make tokens “as cheap as potatoes.” Whether this statement can be realized still depends on actual demand and long-term costs. However, Galaxy Base has made an originally abstract problem visible: As AI enters the work and lives of more and more people, it determines how far it can go, apart from how smart the model is, everyone can't afford to use it.
