IDAES PSE Computational Platform
Established in 1963, the R&D 100 Awards is the only S&T (science and technology) awards competition that recognizes new commercial products, technologies and materials for their technological significance that are available for sale or license. The R&D 100 Awards have long been a benchmark of excellence for industry sectors as diverse as telecommunications, high-energy physics, software, manufacturing, and biotechnology. This 2021 R&D 100 winner is listed below, along with its respective category.
Category: Software/Services
Developers: U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory
Co-Developers: Carnegie Mellon University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, University of Notre Dame, and West Virginia University
United States
Product Description:Over the next decade, hundreds of billions of dollars will be invested in new 21st century energy systems and processes that are more dynamic and interconnected than ever before. The Institute for Design of Advanced Energy Systems Integrated Platform (IDAES), developed by U.S. Department of Energy and the National Energy Technology Laboratory, helps companies, technology developers and researchers to model, design and optimize these complex systems, potentially resulting in tens of billions of dollars in savings. As an equation-oriented, optimization-based integrated process modeling platform, IDAES enables rigorous analysis of multi-scale, dynamic processes and operating scenarios to improve efficiency of existing systems and develop next-generation energy systems. IDAES has thousands of downloads and an active, growing global user community from multiple industries. Since its release in March 2019, IDAES has demonstrated significant impacts through its unique capabilities.
