Summary

On 21 August 2026 the Zhongwei Natural Resources Bureau issued the construction-project planning permit (electronic supervision no. 6405022026GG0061667) to China Mobile's Ningxia branch for the B07 data centre and P07-1 to P07-6 diesel platforms of B-zone Phase 2 (167,359.35 m2 GFA), published on 2 September. No construction start, completion or operation of B07 is established. evidence

China Mobile (Ningxia Zhongwei) Data Center B-Zone Phase 2 — B07 Data Centre

Permitted last observed as of · Development consent

Second B-zone substation EIA (project code 2512-640502-07-01-864879). Centre E 105 deg 19 min 2.855 s, N 37 deg 38 min 19.203 s (743 m west of the first). States that the existing B-zone 110 kV substation received EIA approval 卫环函[2025]58号 on 31 July 2025 and was undergoing completion environmental acceptance. Context for the B-zone campus extent only. evidence

Georeferenced imagery extract used only to check that the official EIA substation coordinates in the Zhongwei cloud base read as WGS84 without a web-map offset. Qualitative registration check only: with the printed values read directly as WGS84 longitude/latitude, the six cloud-base EIA points (China Unicom No.1 and No.3, China Mobile B-zone No.1 and No.2, Zhonglian Cloud Base 330 kV, CIDC No.1) fall on the expected parcels of the road grid north and south of Fengyun Road in Esri World Imagery and EOX Sentinel-2 cloudless 2025 (the CIDC point on the built CIDC campus, the Unicom points inside the built Unicom block, the Fengyun switching-station point at the road edge); none shows the several-hundred-metre systematic offset a GCJ-02 web-map coordinate would produce. This is not a measured accuracy. evidence

Precision scope
EIA centre point of the B-zone 110 kV substation, which the report places inside China Mobile (Ningxia Zhongwei) Data Center B-zone. Locates the B-zone campus through on-campus support infrastructure; B07 lies on the adjoining Phase 2 land to the west and its footprint, a parcel centroid, entrance or construction extent are not located.
Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported

No datum or positional accuracy is stated; the WGS84 reading is supported only by the qualitative imagery check. Offset from the substation to the B07 building on the Phase 2 land is unknown. Decimal places are transcription precision, not accuracy.

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.
