International Data Center & Cloud Computing Industry Expo 2026

CDCE 2026 is a core exchange platform for the data center and computing-power sectors. It will be held from December 3 to 5, 2026 at Shanghai New International Expo Center. The event links the CDC Data Center Expo, EP Power Expo, ES Energy Storage Expo and HE Hydrogen Energy Expo, covering more than 86,000 square meters and bringing together 2,200 quality exhibitors.

CDCE 2026 offers full industry-chain coverage, distinctive international cooperation resources, and a practical project-oriented focus. It works alongside EP Power Expo, ES Energy Storage Expo and HE Hydrogen Energy Expo, covering computing-power and electricity coordination, power solutions, liquid cooling at scale, full-stack computing power, AI operations, AIDC and green energy, with an emphasis on solutions and project matching.

CDCE 2026 features computing-power, liquid-cooling, IDC/EPC contractor/design-institute and overseas-product zones, together with EP Power Expo. Exhibits cover data center infrastructure, computing hardware, computing services and platforms, AI applications, IoT, digital twins, data collection, remote operations, power transmission and distribution, new energy, power digitalization and power automation.

CDCE 2026 focuses on precise matching and closed-loop resources through MVP supply-demand matching, customized visiting routes and site-visit opportunities. It organizes face-to-face meetings for specialized sectors, tailors routes to business needs, and arranges visits to benchmark data centers or factories to improve matching efficiency.

In 2026, the computing-power industry will trend toward mainstream heterogeneous computing, wider adoption of green computing power and networked computing resources. CDCE 2026 showcases GPU chips, intelligent-computing hardware foundations, liquid cooling, hydrogen power supply, new energy storage, source-grid-load-storage systems, microgrids, virtual power plants, computing scheduling and heterogeneous computing networks.

Traditional data center upgrades focus on cloud and intelligent transformation, green energy efficiency and edge collaboration. CDCE 2026 brings together providers of hyper-converged architecture, AI operations systems, liquid cooling, waste heat recovery and edge computing nodes, and offers forums for comparing solutions, discussing pain points and connecting with benchmark project experience.

AI computing-center deployment faces challenges in high power density, cooling and power-distribution stability, while green data-room upgrades focus on reducing PUE and integrating renewable energy. CDCE 2026 showcases high-power-density cabinets, advanced cooling and power solutions, modular data centers, liquid-cooling systems, new energy storage, computing-power and electricity coordination, and source-grid-load-storage integration.

Key paths to improving energy efficiency include optimizing cooling, reducing PUE, introducing renewable energy and adopting efficient IT equipment. CDCE 2026 focuses on green computing power, gathering solution providers for liquid cooling, modular data centers, green power distribution and new energy storage, with dedicated green data center forums.

CDCE 2026 will showcase next-generation high-power cabinets, full-stack liquid cooling and robust power-distribution solutions. Visitors can compare the cost and impact of different upgrade paths, discuss deployment cases with peers and vendors, and learn data center design standards suited to AI computing power.
