| Summary: | The Global Energy Interconnection is an important strategic approach used to achieve efficient worldwide energy allocation. The idea of developing integrated power, information, and transportation networks provides increased power interconnection functionality and meaning, helps condense forces, and accelerates the integration of global infrastructure. Correspondingly, it is envisaged that it will become the trend of industrial technological development in the future. In consideration of the current trend of integrated development, this study evaluates a possible plan of coordinated development of fiber-optic and power networks in the Pan-Arctic region. Firstly, the backbone network architecture of Global Energy Interconnection is introduced and the importance of the Arctic energy backbone network is confirmed. The energy consumption and developmental trend of global data centers are then analyzed. Subsequently, the global network traffic is predicted and analyzed by means of a polynomial regression model. Finally, in combination with the current construction of fiber-optic networks in the Pan-Arctic region, the advantages of the integration of the fiber-optic and power networks in this region are clarified in justification of the decision for the development of a Global Energy Interconnection scheme.
