The specifications of NREL's Kestrel supercomputer which is designed by HPE have been revealed and features up to 44 PFLOPs of computing horsepower, powering up with Intel's Sapphire Rapids Xeon, AMD EPYC Genoa CPUs & NVIDIA's H100 GPU accelerators.

The US DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), announced its plans last year for Kestrel, a brand new supercomputer that will tap into the latest technologies from AMD, Intel & NVIDIA, to replace their existing Eagle supercomputer. The supercomputer will be designed by Hewlett Package Enterprise (HPE) and during a recent conference, they unveiled the first look at specs for the system.
