The Lin-gang Special Area in Shanghai hosts China's first underwater data center, combining renewable energy with deep-sea cooling to improve efficiency and sustainability. The first operational phase delivers 2.3 megawatts of capacity, with plans to expand to 24 megawatts and eventually a 500-megawatt offshore expansion. The facility uses watertight capsules on the seabed cooled by the ocean's natural properties, powered mostly by offshore wind energy.
