17/04/2017
The Energy Center of the SKOLKOVO Business School organized a breakfast press meeting for journalists who cover issues relating to the fuel and energy complex. The meeting took place in one of the conference rooms at the Swissotel Krasnye Holmy Hotel in Moscow. The Energy Center team was presented, to the members of the mass media, along with a recitation of the research skills, plans, and the major research projects of the Energy Center. The participants of this informal meeting discussed issues related to the current situation of world energy (including the spheres of oil, gas, and electric power) and the role of Russia in global energy processes. Journalists from the leading business and industry publications took part in the press breakfast.
Energy Center Director Tatiana Mitrova explained that the Center’s mission is not only to conduct research, but also to prepare an agenda for the future of energy, as well as to promote knowledge about energy, and also to create a space for dialogue among Russian and foreign experts, companies, government authorities– all the stakeholders interested in energy development, with no exceptions. As for research, Ms. Mitrova noted that the key principle for the selection of research projects would be ‘novelty’. "We will study everything that changes the established view of the world, whether it is business models and strategies, technologies, or transformation of the hydrocarbon market", she explained. Research projects will be planned in cooperation with foreign experts who will act either as co-authors or as reviewers in the final stages of preparing research products. The experts of the Center will maintain their leading role as the main authors of the studies and be responsible for the final products.
Media interest was aroused by a new educational project, the Energy Lecture Hall, which will be a forum for public presentations from respected Russian and foreign experts on the fuel and energy sectors. The list of speakers will include the heads of companies and international organizations, and the forum is designed for a wide audience. Slated as the first speaker at the Energy Lecture Hall was Simon Blakey, the founder of the European Gas and Power Engineering section of the IHS CERA (one of the world's leading consulting companies), Managing Director of SAB Global Energy, and a Senior Researcher of Energy Group. On April 19, he discussed in great depth long-term gas contracts, both the current state of affairs and their future prospects.
During the second part of the event, the experts (Director of the Center Tatiana Mitrova, Head of the Power Engineering Section Alexey Khokhlov, Head of the Gas and Arctic Section Roman Samsonov, Researcher of the Oil and Gas Section Ekaterina Grushevenko, Analyst Alexander Sobko, Junior Analyst Zlata Sergeeva) answered questions from the media that were devoted to both the future plans of the Energy Center and to other crucial topics for the global energy industry. Experts and journalists discussed gas markets as well as the current transformation of power engineering (including the role of renewables and the Internet of Things). They also touched upon the prospects of the oil industry, the influence of geopolitical and economic factors on fuel and energy trends, and many other ‘hot’ issues in the field of energy. The meeting was held in a friendly and informal atmosphere. Experts from the Energy Center emphasized that they would be happy to develop further fruitful relations with journalists, and specifically, to present their research products and programs in the field of research, education, and organization of the dialogue.
