- Description
- The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) High Performance Computing for Energy Innovation (HPC4EI) Program will issue a solicitation in May 2020 for the High Performance Computing for Manufacturing (HPC4Mfg) Program. The HPC4Mfg Program is funded with support from the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy�s Advanced Manufacturing Office. HPC4EI programs such as the HPC4Mfg Program are designed to spur the use of DOE�s National Laboratories� supercomputing resources and expertise to advance innovation in energy-efficient manufacturing and new materials that will enable advanced energy technologies. In this solicitation, we are seeking qualified industry partners to participate in short-term, collaborative projects with the DOE�s National Laboratories. Selected industry partners will be granted access to high performance computing (HPC) facilities and experienced staff at DOE�s National Laboratories. The collaborations will address key challenges in U.S. manufacturing development by applyingmodeling, simulation, and data analysis to relevant problems with the intent to improve energy efficiency, increase productivity, reduce cycle time, enable next-generation technologies, test control system algorithms, investigate intensified processes, lower energy cost, and accelerate innovation. Projects must demonstrate potential impact to energy efficiency in manufacturing development with a potential for broad national impact. We will solicit proposals that require HPC modeling and simulation to enable impactfulmanufacturing-process improvements resulting in reduced energy consumption and/or increased productivity. Eligibility for this program is limited to entities thatmanufacture products or operate systems in the United States for commercial applications and organizations that support them. Applicants are highly encouraged to partner with universities and non-profit organizations located within federally-designated Opportunity Zones and/or Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU). Selected projects will be awarded up to $300,000 to support computing cycles and work performed by the National Laboratory, university, and non-profit 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. Project durations are for one year. The HPC4EI Program anticipates making multiple awards, subject to the availability of funding, for the HPC4Mfg Program. More information about the HPC4EI Program can be found at: www.hpc4energyinnovation.org�
