PROBLEMS QUANTUM SOLVES
Energy & Climate
Quantum applications for energy are limitless: ranging from climate modelling and weather forecasting through to grid management and finding favourable locations for wind and solar farms, to enable the harvest of the greatest amount of energy. Companies in the industry are already exploring the potential of quantum computing for renewable energy technologies, optimisation, and simulation.
ENERGY & CLIMATE
Climate & weather
A key aim is to solve fluid dynamics-based simulations, paving the way for model refinement, providing invaluable insights into future conditions, and enabling better planning for both mitigation and adaption strategies.
Seismic processing
Utilising quantum computing, seismic imaging can be accomplished using full elastic wavefield data, capturing all waves generated by a seismic source. This advancement promises more precise seismic mapping and exploration.
Carbon capture
Utilising quantum capabilities such as simulation to study chemical reactions related to carbon capture could support in researchers discovering new carbon-capture reactions and ways to predict reaction efficiencies.
Challenges for Radiation Transport
Modelling radiation transport is fundamental to nuclear physics and plays a part in everything from reactor design and operation, fuel fabrication, transport, and decommissioning. Beyond nuclear power and decommissioning, it plays a vital role in nuclear medicine, the space industry, food irradiation and oil well logging.
ANSWERS Software Service, part of Jacobs Solutions Inc., led a project to investigate the opportunities created by using OQC Lucy to make the runtime of Monte Carlo methods more competitive.
