SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 13 October 2026 – at Data Centre World (DCW) Singapore 2026, David AN, Director of ZTE CTO Group, delivered a keynote titled "From Data Center to AI Factory, TCO-Optimized AIDC" in the DCW Keynote Theatre. The presentation outlined how the explosive growth of AI is transforming data centers from traditional facilities into integrated AI factories, and why the industry must optimize the entire AI factory lifecycle - not individual components—to achieve sustainable total cost of ownership (TCO).
AN opened by highlighting the rapid acceleration of global computing demand. Inference now drives 70% of intelligent computing growth, while global daily token usage has increased by 1,000 times in just two years. By 2032, global data center scale is projected to reach 246 GW, with AI data centers (AIDC) accounting for 52% of that capacity. This surge is placing unprecedented pressure on power, cooling, architecture, and deployment.
"AI is pushing traditional data center architecture to its limits," said David AN. "The industry must restructure power systems to dynamically match load demand, reduce transmission loss, and rethink how compute, power, and cooling work together. "
The presentation identified three industry trends:
1. Power Becomes the New Bottleneck. Data center power is evolving from a single grid input to multi-energy synergy and generation-storage-distribution-consumption linkage. The system must match power with computing load in real time across day/hour, hour, minute, second, and millisecond levels. Technologies such as 800V HVDC, solid-state transformers (SST), and multi-level energy storage are essential.
2. Cooling Must Follow Compute Density. Low-density data halls (≤40 kW) can rely on air cooling with PUE ≤1.25. High-density halls (60–240 kW) require air-liquid hybrid cooling with PUE ≤1.15. Ultra-high-density AI halls (≥600 kW) demand full liquid cooling with PUE ≤1.09. Cooling must evolve alongside chip and rack trends to support the next generation of AI workloads.
3. AI Infrastructure Must Evolve at GPU Speed. Traditional site-assembled construction is too slow. The industry is moving toward modularity and prefabrication, full-unit transport, on-site assembly, and joint commissioning. With 90% MEP modularization, delivery periods can be reduced by 50%. This approach also enables phased investment, synchronized power and cooling matching, and sustained technology roadmap evolution.
ZTE's vision is to optimize the AI factory as one system that integrates the co-design and coordination of computing, power, and cooling. This system is characterized by synergy management, energy saving, flexible adaptability, and rapid delivery. ZTE's end-to-end AI infrastructure capabilities span power, cooling, and prefabricated data centers. Key solutions include 800V HVDC power modules, safe lithium batteries, intelligent busbars, cold-plate and immersion liquid cooling, fan walls, and fully prefabricated data centers.
With more than 20 countries, 500+ cases, 400,000 cabinets, more than 3,200MW, and 3.5 million square meters of delivered projects, ZTE has established itself as a leading end-to-end data center solution provider. Since entering the modular data center field in 2009, the company has continuously advanced prefabricated and green data center technologies, solidifying its competitive position in the global data center market.

MANILA/JAKARTA - Media OutReach Newswire - 13 October 2026 - VinFast has announced a special incentive package of up to US$60,000 for each new electric motorcycle showroom opened by its dealer partners in the Philippines and Indonesia. The program is designed to help local businesses tap into the strong growth potential of the electric motorcycle market, while making VinFast's smart electric motorcycles more accessible to consumers.
A VinFast e-motorcycle showroom at SM Mall of Asia in the Philippines, part of the company's growing dealer network across Southeast Asia.
Under the program, dealer partners that open new VinFast electric motorcycle showrooms in the Philippines and Indonesia by December 31, 2026, will receive basic support of up to US$40,000 per location, depending on the showroom's size, floor area, and dealership standards. Showrooms that open by October 31, 2026, will qualify for an additional incentive of up to US$5,000 per location. Finally, partners that open three or more stores will also receive an additional incentive of up to US$15,000 per location.
The program is designed not only to create new business opportunities for dealer partners, but also to encourage more consumers to switch to greener transportation and help protect the environment. Through this initiative, VinFast continues to advance its goal of accelerating the shift toward greener, cleaner, and quieter mobility.
VinFast is committed to providing dealer partners with comprehensive support, from business consulting and marketing strategies to professional training, helping them get their operations up and running quickly. This support will also ensure that dealerships across the network follow VinFast's standards for brand identity, showroom design, operating procedures, and customer service.
By joining the VinFast network, partners will have the opportunity to offer high-quality battery-swapping electric motorcycles that are safe, reliable, environmentally friendly, and suited to a wide range of customer needs, initially including the Evo, Feliz II, and Viper. Partners can also benefit from VinFast's supporting infrastructure, including its continuously expanding service and warranty facilities, as well as support policies for service workshops. This will provide a solid foundation for dealer partners to confidently deploy services, enhance the customer experience, and strengthen the competitiveness of their products in the market.
Ms. Vo Thi Cam Tu, Managing Director of VinFast E-scooter Overseas Markets, said: "Expanding our dealer network is an important part of VinFast's strategy to build an electric motorcycle ecosystem in international markets. We are looking to partner with businesses that share our long-term vision for green mobility, while giving dealers the support they need to make the most of their strengths within the VinFast network. From developing showrooms to running day-to-day operations and serving customers, VinFast will continue to work closely with our partners to build a stronger electric motorcycle network."
The expansion of the electric motorcycle dealer network is part of VinFast's broader plan to expand its distribution network in the Philippines and Indonesia, with the company targeting hundreds of stores in the two markets, respectively, by the end of 2026. As of September 2026, VinFast has 63 electric motorcycle dealerships operating in Indonesia and the Philippines. Going forward, VinFast will continue to expand its presence and bring its electric vehicle products and services closer to consumers across Southeast Asia, supporting the region's transition to greener, smarter, and more modern mobility./.
