The climatic features of the Murmansk region (low average annual temperature; insignificant number of sunny days) do not contribute to the effective use of natural methods of drying aquatic organisms and determine the use of artificial dehydration methods using appropriate equipment. The capabilities of ship fish processing complexes are limited; highly productive coastal fish processing plants are required to supply the population with fish products. The development and testing of new drying modes has been carried out using a small-sized drying unit UPOR-M2. In the course of the study, a drying unit modernization project has been developed, equipment has been selected (thermal imaging system; damper and fan control modules), the system has been modernized and a number of experiments has been conducted to determine the effectiveness of the work performed. The modernization of the drying unit has made it possible to increase the accuracy of the data obtained by 25 % (temperature), 20 % (relative humidity), 18 % (weight), to implement remote control of the processes and to ensure reliable operation of the drying system. Further research of different drying modes for aquatic organisms should include upgrading the air supply control system and improving communication equipment.

Renewable energy is a type of energy that can be used continuously regardless of the source that can be consumed as it is used. Renewable energy is derived from "natural resources" that can be continuously or repeatedly extracted from the natural environment. Since these resources are self-existent and inexhaustible over time, they take their place in our lives as alternative energy. Today, the world energy industry is influenced by new global trends and tendencies, which cause changes in market structure, increased competition at sectoral and intersectoral levels, and dynamic growth in innovative technologies in energy production. This article highlights the important features of sustainable energy supply in Azerbaijan. Unlike other countries, Azerbaijan has enough reserve resources to meet its energy needs. However, the recovered energy sources in Lankaran-Astara economic region are not widely spread. Nevertheless, this region has potential profitable recovered energy sources such as solar energy, small river and stream energy, wind energy, geothermal water energy, and biomass energy, and significant work needs to be carried out in the relevant field in the future. Purpose: The purpose of the article is to emphasize the problems related to energy efficiency and to highlight scientific innovations related to the application of sustainable energy sources necessary for modern development. Methodology: The article is based on energy efficiency problems and related experiences that are necessary for sustainable development. It is prepared by using research conducted by many states and international organizations and various scientific sources. Scientific novelty: The article focuses on energy efficiency issues. The latest innovations such as the application of innovative technologies in the energy sector and the efficient use of sustainable energy sources are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Updating the development of specific electrical loads of residential buildings of clusters 1 (up to 5 floors) and 2 (6–11 floors) based on actual measurements (with amendments to the Code of Rules 256.1325800.2016 "Electrical installations of residential and public buildings. Design and installation rules") contributes reducing the cost of technological connection in residential construction, as well as reducing the actual unused "locked power" at the same time as reducing electricity losses in power transformers. In the course of the study, an analysis has been made of the actual electrical loads of residential buildings in Moscow for the periods from November 1 to November 30, 2021 and from December 25, 2021 to January 31, 2022. The number of the studied sample for cluster 1 is 91 houses, for cluster 2 – 58 houses. When determining the maximum specific power of a sample set of multi-apartment residential buildings in Moscow in clusters 1 and 2, an average value and a confidence interval have been established, which "covers" the average of the general population with a probability of 95 %; a comparative analysis of the actual specific electrical loads of a residential building with the loads given in the Code of Rules has been carried out. Based on the results of statistical processing of a sample of multi-apartment buildings in clusters 1 and 2, the dependence of the maximum specific power on the number of apartments in a residential building has been determined with a trend line that clearly illustrates the trend in the studied dependence.

This article presents the value of further increase of the energy efficiency in railway transport in combination with transition to the non-standard sources of energy. This is done within the paradigm of sustainable development and decarbonization in the global economy and by also taking into account the objectives stated in the document “Global perspective of railway transport development until 2050.” Hydrogen fuel cells, which are being studied by the Technical and Scientific Council of the JSC “RZD”, have demonstrated to be the most beneficial. The global trends of commercial use of fuel cells for transport are based on the unique properties of hydrogen as a fuel: high energy efficiency, ecological safety, and capability to be used without electric grids. Taking into account technological and ecological value, the transition from diesel traction to hydrogen fuel cell traction is justified and can be evaluated as a step of evolution that is as valuable as the transition from steam traction to diesel traction. Empirical proof is available that hydrogen is not hazardous to handle with properly designed equipment. The potential of the Russian science allows fulfilling appropriate research and development. We have taken into account that the required scientific and technological competences are available in different scientific centers and their effective integration is required. The conclusion states that the required conditions exist for introduction of the hydrogen fuel cells to the rolling stock in Russia. Although manufacturing of the critical fuel cells is not currently available in the Russian Federation, it can be arranged if demand is sufficient. This will require the collaboration of customers and scientific investigators in the project development of electric rolling stock in which hydrogen fuel cells can be used.

The choice of the method of basic cultivation must be differentiated, considering zonal soil and climatic conditions and local peculiarities of the fields. Chisel tillage refers to soil conservation technologies, and chisel tools provide low-power and, if it is necessary, differential loosened soil, the accumulation, preservation and rational use of soil moisture that is relevant in the arid climate. The authors designed the combined chisel working implements RANCHO, ROPA, plow-cultivator. The traction resistances of the working tools were studied strain-gauge method. The unified equation of traction resistance chisel working was developed. The resistance of tine, chisel, additional equipment on the tine and the dynamics of the chiseling were introduced. The resistance of the chisel was determind by pressure from the soil on its surface. If the speed of machine-tractor aggregate will increase from 1 to 3 m/s then traction resistance of the working implements ROPA will rise by 26-29 percent, plow-cultivator - by 21-23 and classic mould-board plough - by 35 percent due to more significant influence of the dynamic component during moving mould-board plough in the undisturbed soil. The plowing work by the plow-cultivator in comparison with mould-board plough provides more depth of soil loosening (0.38 m when 0.15 m real tillage and 0.2 m in control variant) at comparable energy consumption.

The article considers the problems of enhancing the structure of power and heat generation in Russia, Siberia and the Novosibirsk region. It is shown that the synchronization of energy and heat supply schemes through the development of the distributed power generation (including the cogeneration installations) should become a priority task of the power generation development. Integration of the power generation at the municipal level into the development plans for big power industry and the transition to a new cogeneration paradigm allows to significantly improve the efficiency of both production and consumption of energy. The carried-out serial calculations for a comparative assessment of a number of technologies of the small-scale distributed power generation in the Novosibirsk region allowed to select the perspective directions of diversification of energy sector and to reveal the variety of types and forms of interaction between big and small-scale distributed power generation facilities.

The work solves the problem of creating in Ukraine a modern-level project of an enterprise for tonnage production of biomass pellets. The main technical concept of such project is the block-modular principle of a complete set of a process line, a raw material receiving station and an energy complex. The project used advanced ideas of economical functioning of complex energy-intensive industries -alternative energy sources and deep utilization of heat-carrier heat, returning their energy to the technology. The main energy source of production is ownproduced pellets. As thermal utilizers, devices on thermosphones are designed. It is these devices that have no alternatives in modern systems of utilization of the heat of gases for heating air currents. Decomposition of the production line, the structure of the modules grounded technologically, energy and economically. For this, the modern classification of the pellet market, its three most capacious segments, is considered. The classification of quality characteristics of vegetable pellets, the requirements for their certification are considered. The analysis of modern technologies for the production of alternative fuels from biomass is given Revealed global trends in the development of pellet technologies. The trends of the pellet market in different segments, acrossEurope are studied. It is shown that at present the demand for pellets exceeds supply. The problems and scientific and technical contradictions of the pellet technologies are identified. On the one hand, there is a growing need for powerful plants for the production of alternative fuels from biomass. On the other hand, the sources of raw materials are unstable. And this is a serious barrier for the construction of large plants. The solution to this contradiction in the proposed innovative project is the transition to a block-modular principle. Within the module, technological tasks are solved that require equipment corresponding to the type of raw material. Modules for mechanical processing, drying, and granulation are proposed. Pre-crushing of raw materials is carried out by the original disintegrators of the authors design. The proposed project allows in the shortest possible time to install equipment, relocate it to another raw material area, increase the production tonnage, and transfer it to another type of raw material.
