The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced a $4 million federal investment for 10 projects across 8 states that will harness the processing power of the world's most powerful supercomputers—and the lab experts who operate them—to tackle today's toughest manufacturing challenges, strengthen America's manufacturing competitiveness, and move the country closer to an equitable clean energy future for all Americans. As a part of DOE's High-Performance Computing for Energy Innovation (HPC4EI) initiative, the selected teams will apply advanced modeling, simulation, and data analysis to projects that improve manufacturing efficiency, reduce industrial emissions, and explore new materials and manufacturing processes for clean energy applications. Projects focus on topic areas associated with both HPC4Mfg and HPC4Mtls. Learn more about the selected projects. In addition to the $4 million investment in the above projects, DOE also announced a new $3.4 million funding opportunity for HPC4EI. Qualified industry partners can apply for funding to participate in short-term, collaborative projects with DOE national laboratories. Successful applicants will work with staff from one or more of DOE's national laboratories to conduct project activities across the various high-performance computing (HPC) areas of expertise. These areas include development and optimization of modeling and simulation codes, porting and scaling of applications, application of data analytics and machine learning, as well as applied research and development of tools or methods. DOE will award up to $400,000 to each selected project to support computing cycles and work performed by DOE national laboratories, universities, and nonprofit partners. All DOE national laboratories are eligible to participate. The industry partner must provide a participant contribution of at least 20% of the total project funding.
