Energy Budgeting

The Energy module tracks power consumption and carbon footprint for every quantum job. Set energy budgets per project, schedule jobs to run during low-carbon windows, and export ISO 14064-compliant carbon reports for ESG compliance.

Why Energy Monitoring for Quantum?

Quantum hardware — particularly cryogenic QPUs and HPC clusters — consumes significant power: For organisations with net-zero targets or regulatory carbon reporting obligations, per-job energy attribution is essential.

Green Scheduling

Submit a job with a green scheduling constraint: QCOS automatically delays execution until a low-carbon window within your specified deadline.
QCOS uses real-time grid carbon intensity data from ElectricityMaps and WattTime to find the optimal execution window.

Returns the project’s carbon attribution, including:
  • Total energy consumption (kWh)
  • CO₂e emissions
  • Carbon intensity of the executing region
  • Renewable share
