Information and telecommunications technologies as one of the factors of Russia’s strategic development

Abstract

Creation of an effective system for using information and telecommunication technologies (ICT) is one of the main factors to improve Russia’s competitiveness in the global market. The country’s leadership has developed a set of documents on strategic development in the field of information and telecommunication technologies (ITC) inter alia the "Strategy for development of information society of the Russian Federation for 2017-2030" dated 05/09/2017 No. 203. Russia currently is far from leading positions in the field of information and telecommunication technologies (ITC) in the world market [1]. To change the situation for the better, it is necessary to determine the factors impeded ITC development and take steps aimed to reduce the impact of such factors. Information and telecommunication technologies are developing according to certain market rules which have been formed for more than a decade in parallel with the development of society. The emergence of innovative products and services in the segment has formed modern society in developed countries [2]. First of all, the Internet creation has led to emergence of the new products: sites, portals, online stores, online games, social networks [3]. Second, many companies involved to that kind of activity were established: in the face of intense competition as a result of mergers, acquisitions, splits on the securities, market large players with rapidly growing capitalization appeared - Google, Microsoft Corporation, Facebook, AliExpress. Information and telecommunication technologies are a new stage in the development of modern civilization; its latest trend is based on the creation and using of innovative products in all aspects of its life [4]. Russia has no alternative. In order to improve competitiveness in the world market, it is necessary to efficiently and quickly produce and put into practice various information and telecommunication technologies.

Development of innovative technologies of the fuel and energy industry: foreign experience

“…Modernization of existing power systems on an updated technological basis and restructuring of the power system based on new, innovative principles, require huge investments and other resources due to their scale, complexity and critical nature for the economy and society [23]. In most countries, this situation has been aggravated by the following factors: objective socio-economic restrictions on tariff growth, strengthened by federal (central) and regional (local) regulation; the power system (for the Russian Federation and other large countries) with the limited economically optimal approach to renovation and innovative development of the network; liberalization of the power industry, which has consolidated the investment attractiveness of the "last mile" and generating assets [13,19].…”

Intelligent metering systems designed to achieve energy efficiency of the production process

“…These data collection points should be used to remotely monitor source data such as voltage levels, load changes and temperature. The main indicator is an average duration of interruptions in the system (System Average Interruption Duration Index, saidi), which reflects the reliability of a consumer services enterprise [18].…”

Development of an algorithm for creating RES-based facilities

“…The existing energy supply systems, equipment, renewable energy technologies, and opportunities to increase their efficiency are analyzed [16].…”
