Descrizione e Attività
Descrizione Generale
The Energy-oriented Centre of Excellence for exascale HPC applications (EoCoE-III) applies cutting-edge computational methods in
its mission to foster the transition to decarbonized energy in Europe. EoCoE-III is anchored both in the High Performance Computing
(HPC) community and in the energy field. It will demonstrate the benefit of HPC for the net-zero energy transition for research institutes
and also for key industry in the energy sector. The present project will draw the experience of two successful previous projects EoCoE-I
and EoCoE-II, where a set of diverse computer applications from four energy domains achieved significant efficiency gains thanks to its
multidisciplinary expertise in applied mathematics and supercomputing. During this 3rd round, EoCoE-III will channel its efforts into 5
exascale lighthouse applications covering the key domains of Energy Materials, Water, Wind and Fusion. A world-class consortium of
18 complementary partners from 6 countries will form a unique network of expertise in energy science, scientific computing and HPC,
including 3 leading European supercomputing centres. This multidisciplinary effort will harness innovations in computer science and
mathematical algorithms within a tightly integrated co-design approach to overcome performance bottlenecks, to deploy the lighthouse
applications on the coming European exascale infrastructure and to anticipate future HPC hardware developments. New modelling
capabilities will be created at unprecedented scale, demonstrating the potential benefits to the energy industry, such as accelerated design
of photovoltaic devices, high-resolution wind farm modelling over complex terrains and quantitative understanding of plasma coreedge
interactions in ITER-scale tokamaks. These lighthouse applications will provide a high-visibility platform for high-performance
computational energy science, cross-fertilized through close working connections to the EERA consortium.
Attività svolta da ENEA
• Realizzare versioni di codici che siano in grado di sfruttare la potenza di calcolo exascale nelle applicazioni
energetiche: vento (Alya e waLBerla-Wind), materiali (LibNEGF), fusione (Gysela-X), acqua (Parflow).
• Creare comunità di utenti dei codici sviluppati attraverso il coinvolgimento di Castiel, EuroCC e Inno4scale e altre
iniziative EuroHPC.
Il contributo di Enea al progetto sarà nelle seguenti linee di attività WP2-Materials, WP7-Communication,
dissemination and traini e WP8-Management.
