阿里巴巴集团控股有限公司已与西班牙清洁能源生产商Solaria Energía y Medio Ambiente SA举行会谈，探讨为该地中海国家的一座数据中心供电的可能性，知情人士透露。
Group Holding Ltd. has held talks with Spanish clean-energy producer Solaria Energía y Medio Ambiente SA to potentially supply power for a data center in the Mediterranean country, according to people familiar with the matter.
据知情人士称，这家中国电商巨头已与Solaria进行了初步接洽，这些人因讨论私密信息而要求不具名。考察中的Solaria电厂位于普埃托亚诺，距马德里以南约240公里（150英里）。
The Chinese e-commerce giant has held preliminary conversations with Solaria, according to people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing private information. The Solaria plant under consideration is in Puertollano, about 240 kilometers (150 miles) south of Madrid.
知情人士之一表示，该计划将使用可再生能源，目前阶段比阿里巴巴最近宣布将在欧洲建设的数据中心更早，并补充称该公司也已与其他潜在电力供应商进行过接触。Solaria和阿里巴巴的发言人均拒绝置评。
The plan, which would use renewable energy, is at an earlier stage than data centers Alibaba recently said it will build on the continent, one of the people said, adding that the company has spoke to other potential power suppliers too. Spokespeople for Solaria and Alibaba declined to comment.
此举将代表阿里巴巴在欧洲推进人工智能战略的最新一步，继其上周宣布将在未来12个月内在芬兰和荷兰设立首个云区域之后。该公司还在扩大其在德国和法国的数据中心版图。这些举措将使阿里巴巴与包括亚马逊公司和微软公司在内的企业展开更直接的竞争。
The move would represent the latest step in Alibaba’s artificial intelligence push in Europe, following its announcement last week that it will set up its first cloud regions in Finland and the Netherlands over the next 12 months. It’s also expanding its data center footprint in Germany and France. These moves will increasingly put Alibaba in direct competition with companies including Amazon Inc. and Microsoft Corp.
阿里巴巴是中国在数字基础设施领域最激进的投资者之一。2025年，该公司推出了一项为期三年、金额达530亿美元的人工智能投资计划，此后又发出信号表示计划进一步增加资本支出。
Alibaba is one of China’s most aggressive investors in digital infrastructure. In 2025, the company unveiled a $53 billion, three-year AI investment program and has since signaled plans to further increase capital expenditure.
近年来，中国对西班牙的投资在汽车、电池、可再生能源和物流等领域持续升温。
Chinese investments in Spain have been on the rise in recent years in sectors raging from automotive and batteries to renewable energy and logistics.
西班牙首相桑切斯今年早些时候访问北京期间，签署了一系列旨在吸引中国投资的协议。他是为数不多的主张加强与北京关系而非采取更多保护主义措施的欧洲领导人之一。
Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez signed a number of agreements aimed at attracting Chinese investment to Spain during a trip to Beijing earlier this year. He is one of the few European leaders advocating for closer ties with Beijing rather than more protectionist measures.
阿里巴巴的兴趣正值行业不确定性加剧之际，政府正准备出台一套新规则，以确保国内数据中心由欧盟公司运营，且与其运营相关的数据存储在欧盟境内。
Alibaba’s interest comes amid growing uncertainty in the industry, with the government preparing a new set of rules to ensure domestic data centers are operated by European Union-based companies and that data related to their operation is stored within the bloc.
桑切斯政府的目标是于年底前颁布这些规则，新规还将要求数据中心任何新增的能源需求必须与新增的清洁能源装机容量相匹配。
Sánchez’s administration aims to issue the rules, which would also require that any new energy demand by data centers matches with newly installed clean-energy capacity, by the end of the year.
