Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko took part in a joint meeting of the heads of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Kurchatov Institute National Research Center and Rosatom, dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the nuclear industry.
Aide to the President of Russia Andrei Fursenko read out a greeting from Vladimir Putin, which, in particular, noted: “It is important that the unique potential and truly inexhaustible innovative capabilities of the nuclear industry today be fully utilized for the purpose of modernizing the national economy, ensuring the country’s defense capability and energy security, and training modern, qualified personnel.”
Dmitry Chernyshenko thanked the head of Rosatom Alexey Likhachev and the president of the Kurchatov Institute Mikhail Kovalchuk for their systematic and fruitful work on the development of nuclear science and technology. Thanks to the two flagships – Rosatom and the Kurchatov Institute – Russia is implementing the most ambitious projects.
He also noted the contribution of the First Deputy Chief of the Presidential Administration Sergei Kiriyenko, under whom the necessary foundations were laid for the transformation of the nuclear industry.
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that Russian science has always demonstrated impressive results. This is especially noticeable in the history of the nuclear industry. Among the significant names and events are Igor Afrikantov and the construction of the first nuclear icebreaker “Lenin”, Igor Kurchatov and his invaluable contribution to the Soviet nuclear project, and others.
“Our President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin has set a national goal – technological leadership. In the field of nuclear energy, Russia is truly a leader. It is not easy to be a leader, but it is even more difficult to maintain such a position. To do this, we must continue to develop fundamental and applied science, primarily in the nuclear industry, and train young promising specialists, as the head of state said at a meeting of the Council for Science and Education. The guidelines here are the priorities outlined in the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of our country, in the Presidential Decree on priority areas of scientific and technological development and the list of the most important science-intensive technologies,” said Dmitry Chernyshenko.
The Deputy Prime Minister named the National Center for Physics and Mathematics in Sarov, which is being created on the instructions of the head of state, as an example of successful cooperation between the state, science and business. Modern infrastructure is being built there, including advanced midi-science laboratories and mega-science installations. More than 55 organizations are involved in the cooperation, and the center’s scientific program is currently being implemented by about 2,000 scientists and researchers.
2025 will be an important stage in the development of the Russian nuclear industry: the national project of technological leadership “New Nuclear and Energy Technologies” has been launched. It includes 10 federal projects, half of which are devoted to nuclear topics. The events were approved at the site of the Commission for Scientific and Technological Development of Russia with the participation of the President of the Russian Academy of Sciences Gennady Krasnikov. The implementation of federal projects is of strategic importance for ensuring the technological sovereignty and leadership of Russia.
One of the key areas is the development of thermonuclear energy. According to the federal project “Thermonuclear Energy Technologies”, it is planned to build a unique installation – a tokamak with reactor technologies. Russia also has a unique nuclear icebreaker fleet and is constantly increasing its potential. Not only powerful nuclear icebreakers have been put into operation on the Northern Sea Route, but also the world’s only floating nuclear thermal power plant “Akademik Lomonosov”, which is of key importance for the development of the Arctic.
“Dear friends! In the year of the 80th anniversary of the nuclear industry, our country looks confidently to the future. Of course, only through joint efforts will we successfully implement the tasks set by the President and strengthen Russia’s position as a world leader in the field of nuclear science and technology,” the Deputy Prime Minister addressed the meeting participants.
The event took place in the historic building of the Rosatom State Corporation in Moscow. It was attended by Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev, President of the Russian Academy of Sciences Gennady Krasnikov, President of the Kurchatov Institute National Research Center Mikhail Kovalchuk, as well as representatives of the Ministry of Education and Science, directors and scientific directors of leading industry institutes, outstanding Russian scientists and young specialists.
