He Yang of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology: China initially meets the conditions for conducting research on computing power futures.

He Yang, Deputy Director of the Cloud Computing and Digitalization Research Institute at the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, stated that from the perspective of urgency, the rapid development of artificial intelligence is driving continuous growth in computing power demand and an expanding market size, making it imperative to establish market-based pricing and risk hedging mechanisms that are compatible with it. At the same time, the international market has already begun to develop computing power financial products, and the Cloud Computing and Digitalization Research Institute of CAICT has also conducted nearly two years of continuous research on computing power finance, accumulating a certain foundation in areas such as the computing power financial index system, computing power billing measurement, and derivatives such as computing power futures. Currently, we are in an important window period of transition from theoretical research to industrial practice exploration, and it is necessary to carry out institutional design and market cultivation in advance to reserve space for future innovative development. Overall, China has initially met the conditions for conducting research and exploration into computing power futures, but there are still some key links that need to be connected before a mature computing power futures product can be officially launched.
