Infrastructure is an important support for economic and social development. In the past ten years, what are the important changes in my country's infrastructure development? What role does the construction of new infrastructure play in empowering economic and social development? What progress has been made since the "East Digital and West Calculation" project was launched? The National Development and Reform Commission held a special press conference on the 26th to respond.

Traditional and new infrastructure accelerate integration

Zheng Jian, director of the Infrastructure Development Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that over the past ten years, the overall level of infrastructure in my country has achieved leapfrogging, and has gradually formed development experience that meets the actual situation of national conditions and the requirements of the times in practical exploration.

"The development of my country's transportation, energy, water conservancy, and new infrastructure has achieved historic achievements. The modern comprehensive three -dimensional transportation system and modern energy system have been accelerated. The sword said that my country's infrastructure engineering construction and technological innovation level continued to improve, traditional and new infrastructure accelerated integration, and the infrastructure field was accelerated by the unified and open and competitive market system.

According to reports, by the end of 2021, the total mileage of my country's comprehensive transportation network exceeded 6 million kilometers, 220 kV and above transmission lines were 843,000 kilometers, and the total length of the optical cable line reached 54.81 million kilometers, which was equivalent to 1.3 times and 1.7 times that of 10 years ago, 1.7 times, 1.7 times. With 3.7 times, the total reservoir capacity reached 903.5 billion cubic meters, and the high -speed rail, highway, power grid, and 4G network scale ranked first in the world for a long time.

In addition, my country's modern infrastructure network system has been continuously improved, the layout is more reasonable, and the proportion of high standards and high -quality infrastructure has continued to increase. The coverage rate of high -speed railways over millions of cities with a population of millions of people exceeds 95%, and the coverage rate of highways over 200,000 population cities exceeds 98%. Civil transport airports cover about 92%of prefecture -level cities. Conditional villages with conditions to achieve hardening roads. Passing broadband and direct mail, the penetration rate of rural tap water increases to about 84%, and the penetration rate of 4G and 5G users reaches about 87%.

New infrastructure empower economic and social development

The new infrastructure is an important part of the modern infrastructure system. It is an important support for implementing innovation -driven development strategies and promoting high -quality development of economy and society. Zhang Zhihua, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission's Innovation and High -tech Development Department, said that the construction of new infrastructure in my country has achieved preliminary results, and the in -depth implantation of new infrastructure and empowering my country's economic and social development.

According to reports, in the past ten years, my country Mobile Communication has achieved "county -oriented 5G, village and village broadband" from "4G and Run" to "5G lead"; three major satellite remote sensing, satellite communication broadcast, and Beidou navigation positioning have been initially established. The national civil space infrastructure system composed of the system; 32 of the 77 major national scientific and technological infrastructure of the 77 national major national scientific and technological infrastructure, some facilities have entered the world's first square.

"Information infrastructure such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and remote sensing satellites has promoted the in -depth integration of information technology and the real economy, and the digital economy has become a powerful engine of economic and social development." Zhang Zhihua said that smart facilities are entering thousands of industries. The national industrial Internet network, platform, security and identification analysis system is basically completed; the integrated infrastructure such as remote medical care and smart pension has accelerated the development of the convenience of the people's lives.

He said that in the next step, it will strengthen overall planning, guide telecommunications operations enterprises to coordinate the layout of 5G and optical fiber network construction, improve the national computing power network layout; increase support for new infrastructure construction, enhance the enthusiasm of social capital participation in investment; make up The shortcomings of the shortcomings, continuously implement the basic network improvement project of small and medium -sized cities in the central and western regions, bridge the digital gaps, and accelerate key core technologies in key areas; clarify the focus of the layout and construction order of the new infrastructure, and give priority to supporting the construction of the urgent needs of the masses, the entity of the entity New infrastructure with outstanding economic driving effects.

The initial results of the "East Digital and West Calculation" project

In February of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments launched the implementation of the "East Digital West Calculation" project. Zhang Zhihua said that in more than half a year, the "East Digital West Calculation" project has initially achieved results. At present, the construction plan of the eight national computing power hub nodes has entered the stage of deepening implementation. The new data center projects of the starting area have reached more than 60, and the scale of new data centers exceed 1.1 million standard racks. The total investment of the project exceeds 400 billion yuan. The agglomeration effect was initially appeared. The proportion of data centers in the western region has steadily increased, and the national computing power structure is gradually optimized.

He said that the next step will promote the "East Digital West Calculation" project, strengthen the collaboration between major engineering projects and supporting policies, collaboration between various policy tools, national computing power hub and national integrated computing power network system synergy The coordination of data center construction and the development of computing power industry, led by the national computing power hub and data center cluster, promote the coordinated development of the industry upstream and downstream, and jointly build the computing industry ecosystem.

"On the basis of the deployment of the national computing power hub, the integrated construction of computing power supply stations, network test lines, computing power scheduling networks, data factor fields, and safety protection shields will be coordinated. Network system, "Zhang Zhihua said.
