Russia has "unique solutions that can be utilised for powering data processing centres" and the plan is "to transition to the serial production of small floating and land-based nuclear stations".

Для укрепления технологического суверенитета России создан механизм индустриальных центров компетенций (ИЦК), объединяющий отраслевых заказчиков и разработчиков. Сегодня в рамках ИЦК реализуется около 200 ИТ-решений для замещения иностранного ПО, половина из них уже завершена.

Вице-премьер отметил важность внедрения искусственного интеллекта для повышения эффективности в области государственного управления, работы топливно-энергетического сектора, промышленности, решения задач малого и среднего бизнеса, применения в области финансов, на транспорте, увеличения производительности труда.

The ambitious mission will harness the current AI and advanced computing revolution to double the productivity and impact of American science and engineering within a decade.

Modernizing power grids is critical to meeting rising energy demands, integrating renewable sources, and ensuring operational reliability. Traditional grids struggle with aging infrastructure, fluctuating loads, and the variability of renewable generation.

Defined as the deliberate reduction or cessation of electricity generation from renewables, even when plants are technically capable of producing, curtailment represents a stark irony in our clean energy journey.

In 2026, US data center demand will rise to 75.8 GW for IT equipment, cooling, lighting and other uses, and further expand to 108 GW in 2028 and 134.4 GW in 2030, according to the outlook.

By 2030, U.S. data centers will account for approximately 12% of the total U.S. power demand — an increase of approximately 400 terawatt hours (TWh) from today.

Artificial intelligence offers a path forward. Unlike traditional analytics, which require structured datasets, large language models (LLMs) and other AI methods can process the messy, real-world inputs where SIF precursors often hide: handwritten field observations, free-text incident narratives, transcribed toolbox talks, and even voice recordings.

The global electricity system is undergoing a major transformation, shifting from a traditional, centralized model to a more digital, decentralized one.

Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) have been positioned as solutions for more than a decade, but the real challenge has always been scale. A thousand rooftop solar arrays or community batteries don’t naturally operate like a single 500-MW power plant. To function reliably, they need coordination that is far more sophisticated than simple scheduling.

Глава Минэнерго отметил значимую роль ИТ-технологий в нефтегазовом секторе, в частности, в разработке ТРИЗ.

The two sides discussed cooperation within the OPEC+ framework and the energy sector, including electricity, hydropower and renewables. Three coal-fired thermal power plants will be built in Kazakhstan in the cities of Kokshetau, Semey and Ust-Kamenogorsk, and two power units at Ekibastuz TPP-2 will be renovated with the involvement of Russian specialists.

Despite a strong start to the solar season in Europe, and record amounts of cheap new renewable capacity in Germany since the energy crisis, it’s natural gas that will increasingly decide how much households and factories in Europe’s biggest economy pay for electricity.

The IEA projects power demand from data centers to double by 2030. While renewable energy capacity is also set to increase, especially in Europe, the intermittent supplies provided by wind and solar won’t be sufficient.
