About the EQUALITY project

The EQUALITY (QUAntum ALgorithms for IndusTrY) consortium comprising Airbus, Capgemini, Da Vinci Labs, Fraunhofer ENAS, German Aerospace Center, INRIA, Leiden University and PASQAL, was selected by the EU’s key funding program for research and innovation, Horizon Europe, to develop innovative quantum computer algorithms that are aimed to solve strategic industrial problems.

EQUALITY targets industrial use cases that can benefit from the quantum-enabled speed-up in the near and medium terms. These are computational fluid dynamics for aerospace and energy applications, the design of batteries and fuel cells, the development of new materials for energy applications, multidisciplinary optimisation, space mission optimisation, and space data analysis. Each of these tasks, faced routinely by the industrial partners, is highly demanding on computational resources, forcing engineers to either use simplistic models or rely on expensive build-and-test cycles. The opportunity provided by quantum computers to tackle such questions promises a competitive edge for the European industry.

By transforming current industrial interest into widespread adoption, EQUALITY solidifies the link between strategic European industries and the emerging quantum ecosystem while contributing to technologies critical to the green transition.

EQUALITY is funded by the European Union under Grant Agreement 101080142.
