Consortium
The EESI project consortium has been designed to represent a cross-section of European and international key actors in the field of HPC. The partnership has a deep and broad expertise in all the technological and strategic aspects related to HPC.
The consortium is composed of:
- 2 contractual partners: TOTAL & PRACE
- 29 organizations which act as chairs and vice chairs of Work Packages and tasks
- Around 100 experts who contribute through the project tasks and working groups.
EDF Group is a leading player in the European energy industry, present in all areas of the electricity value chain, from generation to trading, and increasingly active in the gas chain in Europe. EDF R&D contributes to improving performance among EDF Group operating units and identifies and prepares new growth drivers for the medium and long terms. EDF background in numerical simulation is deeply rooted in its nuclear PWR programme launched in the early seventies, and in its particular responsibilities as an architect and owner-operator EDF does not buy turnkey plants but takes responsibility for the global design: it then specifies and assembles different parts provided by various vendors.
