Hoyinn’s Green Computing Power Index has been launched globally!

Company Overview Beijing Hoyinn Technologies Co., Ltd.a well-known environmental name that spans China’s green power and data industries, is about to take its Green Computing Power Index (GCPI) world record. Hoyinn is now looking to expand its influence in emerging markets in the Singapore-Johor-Riau Islands (SIJORI) region.

“Our well-known Green Computing Power Index in the SIJORI region is based on the development of successful studies that we have established in China. We want to expand these models in foreign markets and gradually integrate global products,” said Mr. Wei He, Net Zero Business Lead, Hoyinn, added, “Our goal is to promote the concept of Zero-Carbon Ecology Industry Alliance by combining. expertise, and aligning our efforts with market trends.”

In order to achieve cooperation and adoption, Hoyinn will also focus on the development of green finance products in the country, which will cover all stages of the project’s life – from development and operation to capitalization.

What is the Green Computing Power Index?

The GCPI evaluates data centers on four key pillars: performance, low-carbon sustainability, smart energy and carbon management, and sustainable green environmental management. These pillars are further defined in 10 secondary and 19 tertiary metrics, which provide a partial analysis.

It also considers technical specifications, availability, GPU/CPU utilization, and site optimization for data center optimization, modularity, and scalability. On the front, the index prioritizes the production of renewable energy and the use of clean air, over conventional energy consumption.

“Green and sustainable computing systems are like the power engine of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, but they don’t have a tool for scientific analysis and management,” says Wei, explaining the importance of developing GCPI.

Launched in China in June 2024, the GCPI was developed under the leadership of key government agencies, including Hebei Provincial Data Governance Bureau, Hebei Provincial Energy Bureau, and Zhangjiakou People’s Government. The project also received support from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, energy-enhancing giant Envision, home electronics manufacturer Heengy, major computer enterprises such as iFlytek, and Huawei, as well as financial partners such as Cedarlake Capital, Morgan Stanley HK, Keppel Group Singapore. , Envision & Sequoia Carbon Neutral Fund, SPD Bank, CMB Financial Leasing, and the certification body TUV SUD and E&Y.

How does it help?

“The index is linked to green interest rates in banks, helping data center businesses to get a higher rate of return. At the same time, it is included in the stock index, which helps data center businesses get premium rates. Before it was released, there were no similar tools in China,” explains Wei. .

The index is directly linked to the score for financial incentives, where data centers that have scored more than 50 points are eligible to receive interest on the loan. Each increase of 10 points is equivalent to a reduction of five points in the cost of loans, which can translate to RMB 2.5 million in annual income of RMB 1 billion.
