Automation Technology Day: A Scientific and Technical Conference

⚙️ From automating individual operations to digitally managing an entire enterprise: how can this transition be achieved in practice? This was the key question discussed at the scientific and technical conference “Automation Technology Day” at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.

How to Transform Theoretical Knowledge into Practical Solutions

A recent study visit to the Brovary Factory of Boiler Equipment ARDENZ provided 14 students from the Institute of Atomic and Thermal Energy, ranging from first- to fourth-year undergraduates, with a valuable opportunity to connect classroom learning with industrial practice. The two-hour visit was organized by Associate Professors Nataliia Prytula and Artur Rachynskyi, together with Assistant Lecturer Inna Bednarska from the Department of Thermal and Alternative Energy.

Overcoming Barriers to High-Quality District Heating

During the conference "The Future of District Heating: International Experience, Innovative Technologies, and Digital Solutions," held in May at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, a joint event organized by the university and the ReWarm project of the German Society for International Cooperation (GIZ) focused on discussing key issues related to the modernization of district heating systems. Particular attention was given to the application of heat pump technologies, including those based on geothermal energy sources, as well as the implementation of digital solutions for the intelligent management of district heating networks.

🎥 HeatTech Hackathon 2026: Events and Participants

The hackathon took place in early April at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute. It was organized by the Heat Energy Cluster of Ukraine in cooperation with the Department of Thermal and Alternative Energy of the Educational and Research Institute of Nuclear and Thermal Energy. Its primary objective was to foster collaboration among students, researchers, industry representatives, and local communities in developing solutions that will help Ukraine maintain reliable heat supply even under crisis conditions.
