Laos to develop AI infrastructure with green energy

This will serve as a pilot project for an AI centre powered by clean energy, according to a report by the ministry on Monday (June 2).

The project involves conducting a feasibility study on the creation of an AI Special Economic Zone covering more than 150 hectares in Lao capital Vientiane, utilising green energy sources to support the country's digital transformation and strengthen its AI capabilities.
