Building International Cooperation in HPC: Visit to ITER Tenerife and Teide HPC<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the beginning of July 2025, Lucia Mal\u00ed\u010dkov\u00e1, representative of the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) and the National Competence Centre for High-Performance Computing (NCC for HPC), had the opportunity to visit the renowned technological and research institution ITER \u2013 Instituto Tecnol\u00f3gico y de Energ\u00edas Renovables, S.A. on the island of Tenerife.\n\nAs part of the working visit, she met with the center\u2019s director Carlos Suarez and Jes\u00fas Rodr\u00edguez Alamo to discuss opportunities for establishing cooperation in the field of high-performance computing (HPC), research, development, and innovation using advanced technological infrastructures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ITER: Research, Innovation, and Sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ITER is one of the most prominent technological institutes in Spain, with a strong focus on renewable energy sources, green technologies, and innovative solutions for a sustainable future. The center plays a key role in bridging science and industry, creating conditions for the development of solutions with significant societal and environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of this research ecosystem is Teide HPC, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Spain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teide HPC: A Symbol of the Union Between Nature and Computational Power<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Teide HPC supercomputer is housed in a seemingly unremarkable building in the industrial area of Tenerife. However, inside lies a technological gem capable of tackling the most demanding scientific and technical computations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is named after Mount Teide, the highest peak in Spain, whose symbolism is reflected in the graphic design of the facility itself. This design expresses the connection between the forces of nature and the power of computation \u2013 perfectly capturing the mission of the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teide HPC is used not only for research in the field of renewable energy but also supports a wide range of multidisciplinary projects \u2014 from bioinformatics and artificial intelligence to simulations in energy, transportation, and climate science. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Steps Toward Cooperation Between Slovakia and Spain<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucia Mal\u00ed\u010dkov\u00e1\u2019s visit represents an important step in strengthening international ties between Slovak and Spanish partners. During discussions with ITER\u2019s leadership, several potential areas of cooperation were identified \u2014 including knowledge exchange, participation in joint research projects, expert mobility, and opportunities in education and training for HPC users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The representative of NSCC and NCC also presented the Slovak high-performance computing ecosystem, <\/strong>as well as the services it offers to Slovak users from the academic, public, and industrial sectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Inspiring Visit with a Vision for the Future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis visit was incredibly inspiring,\u201d said Lucia Mal\u00ed\u010dkov\u00e1 upon her return. \u201cI\u2019m glad we had the opportunity to establish contact with such an important partner as ITER and Teide HPC. I believe this is the first step toward long-term and fruitful collaboration that can deliver tangible results not only for our institutions but also for the entire European research and innovation community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the coming months, the National Competence Centre for HPC will continue its dialogue and explore concrete forms of collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
