Five-page approval letter dated 19 August 2026 and addressed to China United Network Communications Co., Ltd. Ningxia Branch. It records that the No.3 substation project in Zhongwei Industrial Park comprises one new 110 kV substation with 3 x 80 MVA of main transformers, two 110 kV incoming circuits and 48 10 kV outgoing circuits, and 3.1 km of new 110 kV line (0.05 km overhead, 3.05 km buried cable), with a total investment of CNY 101.30 million. Subject to the report form's measures, the bureau agrees that the company may build the project as described (nature, scale, route, location, protection measures). The letter sets construction- and operation-phase conditions, requires re-approval for major changes or if construction starts more than five years after approval, forbids operation before environmental acceptance, and assigns supervision to the bureau's Zhongwei Industrial Park branch. 3 x 80 MVA is transformer rating, not IT load or a grid-connection capacity of the data centre. 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
