JUPITER was unveiled to the public today at Forschungszentrum Jülich in front of high-ranking guests from politics, science, and industry. The German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and the Minister-President of North Rhine-Westphalia Hendrik Wüst attended the inauguration ceremony of Europe’s fastest and most energy-efficient supercomputer.
Jülich researchers are combining quantum computers with supercomputers. Such hybrid systems are intended to unite the advantages of both worlds and crack previously unsolvable scientific puzzles.
JUPITER at the Forschungszentrum Jülich in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, becomes the fastest supercomputer in Europe. JUPITER, developed by the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) and owned by EuroHPC JU, ranks 4th on the June 2025 TOP500 list of the world’s fastest supercomputers and stands as the most energy-efficient system of the top 5 of the listing, which was presented today at the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) in Hamburg.
