Infleqtion (NYSE: INFQ) has secured $3.9 million from the U.S. Department of Energy's ARPA-E as part of the Quantum Computing for Computational Chemistry (QC3) program. This funding is intended to develop quantum algorithms for simulations in chemistry and materials science, targeting applications like superconducting power lines and advanced batteries.
Specifically, Infleqtion's project aims to identify new high-temperature superconductors that can conduct electricity without losses. This initiative complements a $6.2 million contract for the Enhancing Neutral-atom Computers for Optimizing Delivery of Energy (ENCODE) project, which collaborates with Argonne National Laboratory and others to enhance energy grid optimization. Infleqtion will showcase its quantum technologies at the ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit in San Diego from April 7-9, 2026.
