In the Kiev Polytechnic successfully performs research within the eight integrated research programs. Each of them received significant scientific and technical results, an overview of which is given below.
Sustainable development
The main objective of this programme is the analysis of processes of sustainable development as the world in General and to the individual country or region in the context of safety and quality of life. World data center for Geoinformatics and sustainable development (World Data Center for Geoinformatics and Sustainable Development – WDC) International Council for science, which operates in the structure of NTUU "KPI" since 2006, studied in the areas of assessing the effectiveness of public policy and public administration from the standpoint of the concept of sustainable development of society.
The Center staff under the leadership of academician M.Z .Zgurovsky built models of assessment of ecological and socio-economic systems of different levels (enterprises, businesses, industries, regions, countries) from the standpoint of the concept of sustainable development, the criteria and approaches to the selection of relevant groups of indices and indicators, justified the group's global and regional threats that influence the process of sustainable development of countries and regions of Ukraine, developed approaches for analysis of their impact on the processes of sustainable development. Developed a General approach for solving the problem of harmonization of data of different nature in interdisciplinary studies. Developed techniques for proper data conversion taking into account peculiarities of their measurement (individual methods of linear and nonlinear normalization of the data, two the combination of data measured in nominal scales) and methods of quantitative evaluation of data consistency. Was determined the ranking of countries according to the index of sustainable development, where Ukraine ranks 71st place.
Energy and energy saving
The activity of structural subdivisions of the University in the framework of the integrated programme "Energy and conservation" aimed at achieving high energy efficiency with optimal use of all energy resources and minimal negative impact on the environment.

The total economic effect from the introduction of the ASA with quality SE NPC "Ukrenergo" for 2005-2012 is more than 1 billion UAH. As part of the creative team of artists that work with State prize of Ukraine in science and technology our scientists noted A.V. Pracownika (posthumously).P.Kalnica.
Our young scholars also gets results that are worthy of public celebration. In 2014, the prize of the President of Ukraine for young scientists highlighted the work of M. A. Shcherba and T. Y. Antonets on the theme "creating a flame resistant electric cables of different voltage classes". Based on the results of this work in the period 2011-2013, PJSC "Energoprom" is made of 21.6 thousand km of domestic import-substituting poseamation products, and the economic effect from implementation results amounted to $ 37.8 million.
The award of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine for the participation in the development and implementation of innovative technologies in the year 2014 awarded the Dean TEP Prof. E.M.Pismenny and senior research scientist TEP E. M. O. Terakhu for the work "Development of technology and equipment for incomplete cross fin plancoulaine pipes by means of resistance welding and creation on their basis of a wide range of energy-saving heat-exchanging devices."
Based on fundamental studies of heat transfer and aerodynamics developed heat transfer surfaces scientists TEP developed new highly efficient heat exchange surfaces – flat-oval tubes with incomplete fins that have no analogues in the world and are characterized by high adaptability, high intensity, convective heat transfer, almost perfect thermal contact between fins and tube and low aerodynamic resistance. Together with DCTB Institute of electric them. E .Paton NAS of Ukraine developed the technology of manufacturing such pipes by welding that does not require sophisticated equipment, special supplies, and a considerable amount of energy.
One of the important results 2014 was the preparation and adoption of a decision to-wholeness implementation jointly with the company "Technology of nature" of the project for construction of thermal generating stations renewable energy sources (wood graft) on the territory of our University to provide auxiliary heating of the academic buildings and dormitories of the University. Using the latest technology to clean exhaust gases and equipment will be complied with European requirements according to emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere.
The development of the information society
The activities of University employees in the framework of the comprehensive programme "Development of the information society" aims at the development and implementation of projects in the field of information and communication technology to solve socio-economic problems on the basis of Informatization of all spheres of life, including the development of information and telecommunication infrastructure of the University.
In 2014, implemented a large-scale joint project of NAS and MES of Ukraine in relation to the construction of the national grid infrastructure and widespread adoption of grid technologies in all spheres of socio-economic activities of society. To the national grid-a network of powerful supercomputing centers NTUU "KPI" and KNU. Shevchenko, which are connected by data channels of 10 Gbps each other, and supercomputers NAS other regions of Ukraine, combined into a single grid system-clusters.
The actual steel was performed under the direction of Professor A. M. Novikova development with PTI cyber security: the system of active protection of the banking systems and software; automatic detection, evaluation, and analysis of software vulnerabilities; analysis and synthesis software for lawful interception; software for detecting information operations in electronic media; software for detecting information operations in social networks. In the direction of technical protection of information STC "THESIS" of the executed contract in the amount of 2.0 million (the head of M. I. Prokofiev).
