Eviden explores energy advantages in near-term quantum computing systems through research partnerships - Seite 2

Dr. Cédric Bourrasset, Global Head of HPC-AI and Quantum Computing, Eviden, Atos Group, said “While the power for computing keeps increasing, our commitment to decarbonization and sustainability hasn’t diminished. For decades, Eviden has been committed to greener technologies, leading the HPC market with its patented Direct Liquid Cooling. The Group is as equally committed to promoting a greener quantum computing, which we know will be at the heart of computing technologies in the coming years.”

Dr. Su Yi, Executive Director, A*STAR’s IHPC, said “Sustainable computing is closely tied to the potential of quantum computing where near-term quantum algorithms offer energy-efficiency and problem-solving potential that could drive quantum technology adoption. A*STAR’s Institute of High Performance Computing (IHPC) is working together with our research partners to advance this intersection of sustainability and quantum technologies.”

Alexia Auffèves, CNRS Research Director, = Director of the MajuLab, and Co-founder of the Quantum Energy Initiative, said “The collaboration is aligned with the objectives of the recently launched Quantum Energy Initiative, which aims to keep in check the energy footprint of quantum technologies already at their early stage. It will contribute to set up solid, objectives and figures of merit to really assess if quantum energy advantages can be reached. This kind of work is essential to mitigate the risk of green quantum hype. It directly relates to the new QEI working group P3329 at IEEE, which is currently developing a standard of energy efficiency.”
