Energy of the future

Future Energy is a field of scientific knowledge that focuses on developing carbon-free energy sources that reduce environmental risks and preserve fossil fuel resources.
The transformation of energy systems by integrating renewable and nuclear energy sources in a wide range of capacities will eventually provide universal access to low-cost, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy sources.
The Future Energy Program includes the following:
- familiarization with the main types of renewable energy sources;
- study of basic technologies and equipment for converting renewable energy from various sources into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energy;
- deepening knowledge about the state and prospects of renewable and nuclear energy development in the world and in the Republic of Belarus;
- familiarization with the main characteristics of nuclear reactors;
- formation of knowledge about the processes occurring in the main and auxiliary equipment of nuclear power plants (hereinafter referred to as NPPs), NPP safety systems, and the features of systems that affect safety;
- mastering a complex of knowledge on the fundamentals of nuclear physics;
- formation and development of the ability to analyze the basic technological schemes of nuclear power plants and the basic technological schemes of using non-traditional energy sources for various purposes;
- acquiring the skills to perform calculations and select the necessary equipment to create a real conversion unit and integrate it into the existing energy supply system.
