Summary
DeepSeek is planning to add 1 gigawatt of AI computing capacity in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia, marking a major infrastructure push by the Hangzhou-based startup.
The company aims to build its own new facility while also leasing extra capacity from other companies, according to people familiar with the matter.
Ulanqab lies about 350 kilometers northwest of Beijing and already has more than a dozen planned projects, based on a third-party compilation of local government approvals.
The expansion would deepen DeepSeek’s control over computing resources as it seeks to compete with leading AI models from Silicon Valley.
