BillionDollarBreaks – D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) Partners with VINCI Energies, QuantumBasel to Leverage Quantum Computing in HVAC Design Enhancement
D-Wave Quantum (NYSE: QBTS), a leader in quantum computing systems, software and services, is involved in an innovative initiative using quantum computing to improve efficiency in the design of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (“HVAC”) systems for complex buildings. D-Wave Wantum is joined by VINCI Energies and uptownBasel/QuantumBasel in the partnership, which has already successfully transformed the complex HVAC network-generation problem into a constrained quadratic model (“CQM”), potentially efficiently solvable by D-Wave's quantum-classical hybrid solvers. According to the announcement, this first phase of the project marks “a clear step away from traditional computational methods to a more innovative, quantum-classical hybrid approach.”…
