The Energy Department on Tuesday announced aims to grant coveted access to its high-performance computing assets and top scientists’ expertise to chosen collaborators who wish to power new solutions to energy-centered problems presently plaguing American manufacturers.
Through the agency’s latest solicitation released via its High Performance Computing for Energy Innovation—or HPC4EI—Program, selected applicants will have the opportunity to work directly with insiders from across Energy’s national laboratories to conduct high-tech projects on their supercomputing resources aimed at fortifying the United States’ manufacturing sector.
“This program works to advance the use and state-of-the-art of computational platforms and methodologies by U.S. industry so that they can develop and/or optimize products and processes as quickly as possible to enhance competitiveness and reduce national energy consumption,” HPC4EI Director Robin Miles told Nextgov Tuesday. “Ideally, we would like the computational methodologies developed jointly with industry as a result of this program to be a substantive part of the production and/or lifecycle of their products.”
With support from the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s Advanced Manufacturing Office, this solicitation is sponsored by the HPC4Manufacturing program, which falls under the HPC4EI program’s umbrella, along with the HPC4Materials, and HPC4Mobility programs. Each aims to broaden the use of Energy’s high-performance computing assets to support “transformational ..
