Paris, France – November 19, 2024 – Eviden, the Atos Group business leading in advanced computing, today announces that it has 55 supercomputers listed in the TOP500 ranking and 2 systems dominating the Green500, which are respectively the global listings of the world’s most powerful and most energy-efficient supercomputers.

Over the past decade, computing power has grown exponentially, driven even further by advancements in AI. However, this progress has come with a significant increase in energy consumption. Today, controlling and reducing the energy demands of new computing systems is as critical as enhancing their performance, making it a fundamental consideration in their design and manufacturing.

The TOP10 of the Green500 includes three Eviden-built systems that all use Eviden’s unique Direct Liquid Cooling technology – an in-house patented solution to cool the entire supercomputer using warm water (up to 40°c) that can achieve more than 97% heat dissipation.

In 1^st position, remaining at the top as in the previous ranking, the JEDI module of Europe’s first exascale supercomputer, JUPITER procured by the European supercomputing initiative EuroHPC Joint Undertaking.
The 2^nd spot has been awarded to the ROMEO 2025 supercomputer, located in the French University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne (URCA);
In 6^th place, the Green500 has also seen the entry of the JETI module, the most-recent module of the JUPITER supercomputer.

By securing the top spots at numbers 1, 2, and number 6 in the Green500, Eviden underscores its commitment to advancing energy-efficient solutions in a sector traditionally known for its high energy consumption. This recognition highlights Eviden’s dedication to minimizing the environmental impact of its technologies, offering customers not only cutting-edge performance but also a more sustainable approach to meeting their computational needs.

The TOP500 of the world’s most powerful supercomputers has also seen the entry of recently delivered systems such as France’s HPC-AI Jean Zay system (#27), Germany’s newest JETI module for Europe’s first exascale JUPITER (#18) or Danish Centre for AI Innovation (DCAI) Gefion system (#21).

Bruno Lecointe, VP, Global Head of HPC, HPC-AI and Quantum Computing at Eviden, Atos Group, said “Seeing our systems leading the top of the Green500 is a tremendous source of pride for our teams and reinforces Europe’s leadership in the high-performance computing market. A more sustainable HPC and AI is crucial in shaping the future of computing, and we look forward to continue helping our clients develop greener, more efficient systems.”
