A Co-Simulation Framework to Study Future Energy-Economy Interactions

Energy-economy interactions are often studied using top-down integrated assessment or economy models that have broad scope but lack the resolution and process detail to consider complex emerging trends across the energy sector. This presentation describes an approach to maintain both detail and scope by linking NREL's highly resolved models of the electricity, transportation, and buildings sectors with a MIT's USREP computable general equilibrium model of the U.S. economy. We will discuss strategies for linking across disparate models along with preliminary results describing the economy-wide impacts of future energy technology innovation.

Quantum Simulators and Applications on Quantum Framework

Simulating quantum circuits is essential for validating quantum algorithms. However, no single simulator consistently performs best - efficiency depends on circuit structure, entanglement, and depth. In this work, we integrate Qiskit-Aer (state-vector and matrix product state) and QTensor, a tree-tensor-network based simulator, into the Quantum Framework (QFw), a modular platform that supports multiple quantum backends via a unified interface. We also enable distributed quantum approximate optimization algorithm (DQAOA) application compatibility with QFw, allowing sub-problems to be solved in parallel at scale. We then benchmark DQAOA and TFIM (transverse field Ising model) circuits across supported simulators, showing how performance varies significantly with problem type. All simulations are deployed on the Frontier supercomputer using QFw's MPI-based orchestration for distributed, multinode execution. These results underscore the need for simulatoragnostic infrastructure to enable systematic evaluation and highperformance scaling of quantum workloads. QFw provides a practical and extensible path toward reproducible quantum algorithm development across diverse application domains.
