In this article, we estimate the cost of simulating electrolyte molecules in Li-ion batteries on a fault-tolerant quantum computer, focusing on the molecules that can provide practical solutions to industrially relevant problems. Our resource estimate is based on the fusion-based quantum computing scheme using photons, but can be modified easily to the more conventional gate-based model as well. We find the cost of the magic state factory to constitute no more than ∼ 2% of the total footprint of the quantum computer, which suggests that it is more advantageous to use algorithms that consume many magic states at the same time. We suggest architectural and algorithmic changes that can accommodate such a capability. On the architecture side, we propose a method to consume multiple magic states at the same time, which can potentially lead to an order of magnitude reduction in the overall computation time without incurring additional expense in the footprint. This is based on a fault-tolerant measurement of a Pauli product operator in constant time, which may be useful in other contexts as well. We also introduce a method to implement an arbitrary fermionic basis change in logarithmic depth, which may be of independent interest. * IK's contribution was carried out while he was affiliated with PsiQuantum.
