[Seminar] The government's new policy on power and communication influencing data center locations

basic information

**Lecture Overview** The demand for data centers (DC) is expanding due to the proliferation of generative AI, requiring vast amounts of electricity. Currently, digital infrastructure, including DCs, is concentrated in the Tokyo and Osaka areas, making it important to promote regional decentralization from the perspectives of resilience, green transformation (GX), and regional revitalization. In response, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry established the "Watt-Bit Public-Private Council" in March 2025, and in June, the council compiled "Summary 1.0." This lecture will provide a detailed explanation of the government's efforts toward Watt-Bit collaboration and future prospects. **Lecture Items** ■ Current status of digital infrastructure ■ Issues surrounding digital infrastructure and directions for response ■ Background leading to the establishment of the Watt-Bit Public-Private Council ■ Overview of "Watt-Bit Public-Private Council Summary 1.0" ■ Future directions of government policies ■ Related Q&A ■ Business card and information exchange session
