Nissan and the Quantum Machine Learning Project of the Russian Quantum Center (RQC) announced the conclusion of an agreement on cooperation in the field of applying quantum computing to solve chemical compound modeling problems.
We are talking about the development and testing of new generation materials. They are expected to find applications in advanced batteries, among others, which will help Nissan strengthen its position in the booming electric vehicle market.
As part of the partnership, it is planned to create new methods for modeling quantum systems and test them using existing quantum processors. It is expected that the use of quantum systems will make it possible to increase the efficiency of the development of new materials many times over in comparison with traditional computer platforms.
It is noted that the joint initiative of Nissan and RCC is one of the first commercial projects in the field of quantum computing in Russia. The amount and timing of the work were not disclosed.
βQuantum technologies are extremely promising for solving a number of industrial problems. Materials that can be created using quantum computers will significantly increase the energy intensity and power of batteries. As a result, we will be able to create highly efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles, as well as new solutions, βsays Nissan.
