From corrosion-resistant coatings to next-generation batteries and stronger wind turbines, some of today’s toughest industrial challenges share a surprising common thread: they’re being solved inside…
Every innovation begins with a question.
Can this be better? Across factories and industrial plants, every decision has a cost: time, energy, money.
A single misstep can ripple for years.
The High Performance Computing for Energy Innovation program, or HPC for EI, uses some of the world's most powerful supercomputers to answer that question for private industry.
By connecting industrial leaders with computational physicists at national laboratories, HPC for EI turns simulations into solutions, helping companies optimize energy, reduce waste, and stay competitive in a global economy.
Aaron Fisher directs the initiative.
What we do in this program is we find people in heavy industry that uses a lot of energy, uses a lot of resources in the United States, and we match them with computational physicists across the national laboratories.
We help them move the needle on their energy needs and move the needle on their resource needs and make the businesses more competitive.
Resources you use every day, like AC in your car.
