NVIDIA joins US energy department Genesis mission to boost scientific discovery
The Genesis Mission aims to boost US scientific productivity, with NVIDIA contributing AI, robotics and high-performance computing.
The US Department of Energy has confirmed NVIDIA will join its Genesis Mission as a private-sector partner, strengthening collaboration between government, industry, and academia on advanced AI.
Launched under a recent executive order, the Genesis Mission aims to reinforce US leadership across energy, scientific research, and national security. Officials say the initiative is designed to significantly increase the productivity and impact of American science and engineering.
NVIDIA will support the Genesis Mission by providing AI and high-performance computing tools for climate modelling, manufacturing, robotics, nuclear energy, and quantum research. A memorandum of understanding sets priorities covering fission, fusion, digital twins, and autonomous laboratories.
The company is already working with the US Department of Energy on open AI models for scientific simulation. Projects also include AI-driven research in materials science, biology, and supply chains, with further collaboration planned.
The partnership builds on announcements made at NVIDIA’s GTC event in Washington. The announcements include work with Oracle on the Department’s largest scientific supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory.
