Students, postgraduates, young scientists and researchers from leading technical universities took part in the VIII annual international scientific and practical conference “Modern Technologies and Energy Economics” (STEE). The event was held remotely. The organizers were Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, the Belarusian National Technical University and the Kazan State Power Engineering University.

In order to develop import substitution and localization of technologies in the energy sector, it is extremely important to maintain professional contacts and exchange experience at various scientific sites in Russia and friendly countries, noted Viktor Barskov, Director of the Institute of Energy, in his welcoming speech.

The event was attended by over 130 representatives from Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Iran and other countries. Along with traditional participants – SPbPU, BNTU and KSPEU – this year specialists from industrial enterprises and organizations of Russia and the Republic of Belarus spoke.

The conference was devoted to five thematic areas: “Economics and Management in Energy”, “Modern Aspects of Thermal and Nuclear Energy”, “Energy-Efficient Technologies”, “IT Technologies in Energy” and “Hydrogen Energy”. The moderator was Olga Novikova, Associate Professor of the Higher School of Nuclear and Thermal Energy of SPbPU.

The scientists discussed key issues of increasing energy efficiency in mechanical engineering, implementing innovative solutions in renewable energy sources and power engineering. In addition, they considered the assessment of the environmental and economic efficiency of technologies, energy balance analysis, demand management and digitalization of energy data.

Summing up the event, Olga Novikova suggested that the participants strengthen joint research in promising areas of energy, paying special attention to bioenergy.

The joint work of KSPEU and SPbPU on modernization of engineering and economic education has proven its effectiveness, and we intend to intensify this cooperation, emphasized Irina Akhmetova, Vice-Rector for Development and Innovations at KSPEU.

The Belarusian education system has preserved a unique experience in training engineers and economists, which we are ready to share. Of particular interest to us is cooperation in the field of resource-saving technologies and waste recycling, – shared the head of the BNTU department Tatyana Mantserova.

Following the conference, about one hundred scientific articles were accepted for publication.
