Turbulence in magnetic confinement fusion devices is a non-linear phenomenon which involves multi-scale and multi-physics modeling. Simulating turbulence requires a large number of computing resources exploited in parallel which is provided by modern supercomputers. The recently developed gyrokinetic turbulence code GENE-X [1] extends the typical coverage of gyrokinetic turbulence simulations from the core to the edge and scrape-off layer of magnetic confinement fusion devices. Currently, GENE-X uses a heterogenous parallelization featuring OpenMP for intranode and MPI for internode parallelism respectively. To enable simulations of the edge and scrape-off layer of reactor relevant fusion devices, like ITER, the scalability of GENE-X needs to be improved. Therefore, we present progress towards GPU offloading in GENE-X in this work. This includes improving the current offloading approach of GENE-X by implementing a separate C++ layer to the code using modern Fortran’s C interoperability and CUDA.
