Summary

On 16 October 2026 the Guangdong Energy Bureau published energy-review opinion 粤能许可〔2026〕85号, approving in principle the energy report of China Telecom Corporation Limited Guangdong Branch for an intelligent-computing (AIDC) infrastructure project at parcel ZSCN-D4-1 of its Innovation Incubation (South) Base in Sino-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City. The project fits out the campus's existing Buildings A1, A3 and A4 with 71,132 kW of total construction power (28,452.8 standard-rack equivalents; 2,730 racks), electromechanical installation and server racking only, with production expected in June 2028. This dated government record identifies the project and supports announced status. An energy review is not development consent; no fit-out work, completion or operation is established, and capacity and timing are plans. evidence

Stamped publication sheet of planning-condition verification 穗规划资源核实〔2022〕2596号 (related permit 穗知识城规建证〔2019〕145号), approved 2022-10-22 by the Guangzhou Planning and Natural Resources Bureau, for machine rooms A3 and A4 on ZSCN-D4-1, with a schematic site plan of the two buildings. Supports that A3 and A4 were built by October 2022. evidence

Static JavaScript of the bureau's official planning-publicity map page (ghzyj.gz.gov.cn/JGG/xcweb/#/bmap). It builds the map in spatialReference wkid 4326 on Tianditu 'vec_c'/'cva_c' tiles and the Guangzhou Tianditu node, splits each publicity record's lnglat field into longitude and latitude, and plots it as a geographic point with wkid 4326; the map carries the Tianditu review number GS(2024)0568. This documents that register lnglat values are geographic CGCS2000 coordinates (WGS84-equivalent at sub-metre level), not GCJ-02 or BD-09 web-map coordinates. Coordinate semantics only; the embedded basemap service key was neither used nor copied. evidence

Web Mercator imagery tile containing the register marker for ZSCN-D4-1, used with neighbouring z16/z17 tiles (listed in the geometry facts) only to check that the marker read directly as WGS84 falls on the walled China Telecom campus among flat-roofed machine-room buildings, while the GCJ-02 alternative (about 611 m west-north-west) falls at the expressway edge. Qualitative registration check; not a measured accuracy. evidence

Location details

Coordinates: 23.31817, 113.53646

Use scope: Campus locator
Scope class: official_planning_publicity_register_marker
Authority: Official source
Source entity: Campus
Method: official_planning_register_lnglat_transcription
Derivation: direct_geometry
Precision scope: Official Guangzhou planning-publicity register marker of the October 2022 as-built verification of machine-room buildings A3 and A4 (穗规划资源核实〔2022〕2596号) on parcel ZSCN-D4-1. Locates the China Telecom campus through two of the three AIDC buildings; not a building footprint, parcel centroid, entrance or construction extent, and it does not locate Building A1.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
No datum or positional accuracy is stated in the record; the page plots it as geographic wkid 4326 on Tianditu CGCS2000 tiles, and the WGS84 reading is supported only by a qualitative check against Esri World Imagery (the GCJ-02 alternative falls about 610-630 m away on land without the described buildings). Placement rules for register markers are undocumented; markers of other records for the same parcel lie up to 160 m apart, so the point locates the parcel, not a building. Decimal places are publication precision, not accuracy.
Geometry evidence: 4725ae52

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
