- Abstract: Quantum technologies are currently the object of high expectations from
governments and private companies, as they hold the promise to shape safer and
faster ways to extract, exchange and treat information. However, despite its
major potential impact for industry and society, the question of their
energetic footprint has remained in a blind spot of current deployment
strategies. In this Perspective, I argue that quantum technologies must
urgently plan for the creation and structuration of a transverse quantum energy
initiative, connecting quantum thermodynamics, quantum information science,
quantum physics and engineering. Such initiative is the only path towards
energy efficient, sustainable quantum technologies, and to possibly bring out
an energetic quantum advantage.
