[Wang Zhongmin, former vice chairman of the National Council for Social Security Fund: Electricity is the fundamental support for the development of artificial intelligence] 1. Wang Zhongmin, former vice chairman of the National Council for Social Security Fund and honorary chairman of the China Responsible Investment Forum, recently stated that electricity is the fundamental support for the development of artificial intelligence, and the ultimate direction of electricity development is green electricity. He emphasized that green electricity not only refers to renewable energy power generation forms such as wind, solar, and hydropower, but its own production process and industrial chain should also follow the principles of energy conservation and minimizing the consumption of natural resources. 2. Wang Zhongmin pointed out that the ultimate destination of artificial intelligence is ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance). He believes that the construction of zero-carbon parks, zero-carbon cities, and zero-carbon industries first requires powerful computing centers as a foundation, and computing centers are currently the commanding height of global technological competition. The upstream of the computing power industrial chain is directly constrained by the power supply—if there is insufficient power, the computing power of artificial intelligence will not be able to effectively support front-end applications; if electricity relies entirely on fossil fuels, the progress of achieving global ESG goals will be delayed.
