How can the coordinated development of six networks unleash multiplier-level benefits: NDRC interpretation

Guan Peng, Deputy DirectorGeneral of the Investment Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, recently gave an interview to CCTV News about the coordinated development of the "six networks," introducing the role and implementation approach of multinetwork collaboration in the modern infrastructure system. The report noted that infrastructure such as computing networks, newtype power grids, and nextgeneration communication networks support one another, and that coordinated construction helps improve resource allocation efficiency and create a comprehensive effect where "1+1 is greater than 2." The article states that the key to promoting the coordinated development of the six networks lies in strengthening crossdepartmental coordination, improving investment and financing support, deepening cooperation among the government, banks, and enterprises, and ensuring elements such as land use, sea use, and environmental impact assessment. The National Development and Reform Commission has already established a relevant coordination mechanism to promote the formation of a joint construction effort among power grid companies, telecom operators, and computing power enterprises and other parties. In the three stages of planning, construction, and operation, the report emphasizes that the concept of coordination should run through the entire process: projects should be included in unified planning, corridors and channels should be shared as much as possible and interface standards unified, and in the operation stage, overall efficiency should be improved through open scenarios and shared benefits.
