The grid is outgrowing classical computing.

The energy sector is evolving fast. Renewables, electric vehicles and smart infrastructure add scale, uncertainty and interconnectedness that are pushing traditional computational tools to their limits. Quantum computing offers a paradigm shift for problems that are intractable today:

Unit commitment with renewables
Real-time power flow optimization
Security-constrained economic dispatch
Predictive maintenance scheduling

How a hybrid quantum workflow runs

Classical and quantum processors each do what they do best. Classical systems prepare the problem, quantum circuits attack the hardest sub-problems, and classical systems turn measurements into grid decisions.

01 · Classical pre-processing
Data & formulation
Grid data are cleaned and features engineered; optimization problems such as unit commitment are reformulated (e.g. MILP → QUBO) for quantum hardware.
02 · Quantum processing
Parameterized circuits
Quantum circuits and solvers tackle the hard sub-problems (optimization and pattern recognition) on simulators and real quantum devices.
03 · Classical post-processing
Decisions for the grid
Measurements are decoded and validated, feeding forecasts and decision support for utilities like BATELEC I.

Two projects, one mission

From quantum-powered grid forecasting to solar PV testing and standards, our work targets real operating needs of the Philippine energy sector.
