Research project: Use of wave energy for the third generation WEC
On February 2nd, an online presentation of the research project Use of wave energy for the third generation WEC (Wave energy converter) took place in the premises of the Computing Centre of the Slovak Academy of Sciences. The hybrid event was organized by niore Energy s.r.o. and the National Competence Centre for High Performance Computing.
Company niore Energy s.r.o. is focused on the production and storage of clean energy. Experts from niore Energy s.r.o. are plan to become part of the world's electrical grid solution and contribute to global goals by turning ocean waves into electricity and utilizing water for energy storage. This patent-pending concept is based on a floating ring on the ocean's surface. This ring enables the transformation of oscillating motion into rotary motion, which is the motion that generates the most electricity efficiently. The bigger the diameter of the ring, the more sturdy it is against ocean waves, and the more energy we can collect from a broader surface area. Energy Storage, which is also a rotating device floating on the ocean's surface, will serve as the cornerstone for the storage of clean energy, by converting extra electricity into kinetic energy. You can find more information about Energy HUB technologies HEREDuring the presentation of this research project, M. Novák also gave a demonstration of their technology.
Research project Use of wave energy for the third generation WEC is supported by Norwegian grants and the state budget of the Slovak republic.

Slovak Language in the Era of Large Language Models (with the Support of the Leonardo Supercomputer) 29 May - Srdečne vás pozývame na spoločný webinár o modelovaní jazyka, ktorý organizujú Národné kompetenčné centrá pre HPC na Slovensku a v Taliansku. Nástup veľkých jazykových modelov (LLM), ktoré si vyžadujú obrovské množstvo trénovacích dát, pôvodne znevýhodňoval používateľov málo zastúpených jazykov.
Bilateral Meeting of National Competence Centres for HPC from the Czech Republic and Slovakia: Strengthening Cross-Border Cooperation 28 May - On May 28, 2025, a working meeting of representatives of the National Competence Centres for High-Performance Computing (NCC) from Slovakia and the Czech Republic took place in Bratislava. The aim was to deepen cooperation within the EuroCC 2 project (Grant Agreement 101101903) and to coordinate further joint activities in the field of high-performance computing (HPC) in the Central European region.
Artificial Intelligence in Business: Trends, Tools, and Practical Applications 25 May - Dňa 20. mája 2025 sa na pôde Univerzity Konštantína Filozofa v Nitre uskutočnila odborná prednáška s názvom „Artificial Intelligence in Business – Trends, Tools, and Practical Use“. Cieľom podujatia bolo predstaviť možnosti využitia umelej inteligencie (AI) v prostredí malých a stredných podnikov a podporiť ich digitálnu transformáciu s využitím vysokovýkonného počítania (HPC).
