PRESS RELEASE — At the recent “Electricity and Energy” conference in Eilat, Emanuele Dalla Torre, CSO of QuantyMize, unveiled a bold vision for the future of energy management powered by quantum computing. His presentation showcased how quantum technologies are enabling unprecedented optimization of renewable energy integration into existing microgrids, solidifying QuantyMize’s position as a leader in the field.
The Quantum Leap in Energy Optimization
Traditional energy management faces significant hurdles when it comes to integrating renewable energy sources like solar and wind. These challenges include managing limited transmission capacities, determining optimal charge-discharge schedules for storage units, and ensuring energy supply stability. These tasks involve solving combinatorial optimization problems, which become exponentially complex as systems grow.
Quantum computers, particularly quantum annealers, offer a powerful tool for addressing these challenges. By representing optimization problems as QUBO (quadratic unconstrained binary optimization) models, quantum annealers can explore a vast solution space efficiently. While current quantum hardware has limited capabilities, QuantyMize focuses on developing the best practices to maximize the performance of existing devices, ensuring meaningful and practical outcomes today. This approach allows them to identify optimal configurations for energy production, storage, and transmission far faster than classical methods.
QuantyMize’s Quantum Solution
QuantyMize has developed a cutting-edge prototype leveraging quantum annealers to optimize energy production and storage scheduling in microgrids. Their model incorporates daily energy consumption and production curves, storage dynamics, and transmission constraints, generating highly efficient operational plans. By directly encoding these problems into QUBO formulations, their algorithms maximize the integration of renewable energy while minimizing operational inefficiencies.
In results presented at the conference, QuantyMize demonstrated up to 40% reduction in battery charge-discharge cycles, significantly extending battery lifespan. Additionally, their solution optimized the global exploitation of renewable energies, achieving better efficiency than other methods that focus solely on local optimization of each photovoltaic cell and storage units. These results, achieved with quantum algorithms, highlight the transformative potential of quantum computing in energy management compared to classical approaches.
A Leader in Quantum Innovation
QuantyMize, a pioneering startup specializing in quantum computing for combinatorial optimization, has consistently delivered innovative solutions across industries such as healthcare, security, and tourism. Their expertise in developing practical quantum algorithms positions them as leaders in this rapidly evolving field.
Their current work on smart grid optimization is a testament to their commitment to addressing global challenges through innovation. As Dalla Torre emphasized in his talk, “Our goal is to achieve quantum advantage, enabling groundbreaking solutions that were previously unimaginable with classical computing.”
Looking Ahead
QuantyMize has a functional prototype, developed in conjunction with industry professionals. The company is currently engaged in strategic partnership negotiations within the energy sector. These partnerships will facilitate the real-world validation of QuantyMize’s quantum-powered solution, paving the way for a future where renewable energy is seamlessly integrated into efficient and sustainable smart grids.
QuantyMize is actively seeking additional strategic partners to further develop and deploy their technologies. By combining expertise in quantum algorithms with practical applications, the company is poised to redefine energy management and drive a greener, more efficient future.
