Driven by surging demand for AI computing power and the large-scale rollout of AIDCs, energy supply models are undergoing profound transformation.
Green power aligns with decarbonisation targets for compute infrastructure. Yet its fluctuating output conflicts sharply with data centres’ strict requirement for uninterrupted, stable power supply. This structural mismatch between computing workloads and energy resources has become a major bottleneck for large-scale industry expansion.
How to interconnect wind, solar and energy storage assets with computing loads to dynamically match power supply and compute demand is a core challenge for the AIDC infrastructure sector. Building on more than 20 years of expertise in solar-storage-compute microgrids, Trina Solar will share actionable implementation insights at the Hongqiao International Science and Technology Week 2026 forum.

Hongqiao International Science and Technology Week 2026 will take place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from November 20 to 22. As one of its six thematic stages, the Smart Infrastructure Stage focuses on AI infrastructure, computing networks, data centres and energy management, exploring the upgrade of digital infrastructure and industry innovation trends.
Its agenda covers AI infrastructure, computing power development, data centre construction and energy efficiency optimisation, fostering deep integration of technological innovation and industrial deployment.
At this forum, Kai Kang, Head of Product Centre at Trina Solar’s AIDC Division and General Manager of Trina Yudian, will deliver the keynote speech Reconstructing the Integration of Computing Power and Energy: The AIDC Enters a New Era of Computing-Energy Synergy. Drawing on more than two decades of research into solar-storage-compute microgrids, he will analyse pain points arising from mismatches between green power and computing workloads. He will introduce a computing-energy synergy solution centred on AI scheduling. It integrates solar, wind, storage, computing resources and grid capacity through spatiotemporal coordinated dispatch, establishing an operating mechanism of “compute workloads follow power availability, and power supply adapts to compute demand”, enabling green energy to efficiently power compute operations.
Keynote Reconstructing the Integration of Computing Power and Energy: The AIDC Enters a New Era of Computing-Energy Synergy
The industry is facing the widespread challenge of a “structural mismatch” between green electricity and computing power. While green power delivers economic and low-carbon benefits, its output is inherently volatile. Computing workloads are growing at high density and require non-stop power supply, creating an inherent conflict.
Trina Solar leverages AI as the scheduling hub to achieve dynamic matching between power supply and compute loads, smoothing out green power fluctuations before they reach server racks and unlocking reliable compute value. Centered on spatiotemporal coordinated dispatch, Trina Solar’s computing-energy synergy solution aggregates multi-source resources including renewables, energy storage, computing capacity, power grids and power markets. It supports day-ahead planning, intraday optimisation, real-time response and cross-site resource coordination. It enables the collaborative model “compute follows power, power serves compute”, converting green energy into compute value more efficiently.
