A new paper introduces a simulation framework to analyze the energy consumption of quantum and classical computing firms competing in an energy-limited market. The research models these providers as differentiated Cournot competitors, with their service capacity influenced by energy scaling laws specific to quantum and classical technologies. The study characterizes the Nash equilibrium under capacity constraints and identifies the demand scale at which quantum computing becomes more energy-efficient, with numerical experiments calibrated to trapped-ion and Rydberg platforms.
