E., Kirilenko V.O., Kononenko Z.I., Moroz E.A., Petrenko A.F., Petrusha Yu.S., Radkevich V.N., Strelova T.N., Ulasevich A.F. , Fursanov M.I., Cherdyntseva (Sushchenok) L.R., Shapiro I.Z., Shirochin S.P. and etc.
Researchers and engineers of the NIS department under the guidance of teachers of the department carried out scientific research on economic contracts and state budget topics, which developed in three directions:
– applied research; they brought a great economic effect;
- search and applied work, which aims to identify new technical solutions for the operation and optimization of the development of electric power systems;
– theoretical work; these works were aimed at creating theoretical foundations and developing solutions in matters of transmission of electrical energy and control of power systems.
In 1992, on the basis of the Research Laboratory of Electricity, the Research Laboratory of Energy Production and Distribution (P&RE) was created, the head of which was appointed Associate Professor of the Department of Power Plants, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Sergey I.I. Prof. Strelyuk M.I., Prof. M.I. Strelyuk, Vice-Rector for Research, Prof.
In NIL PiRE, a sector of protective equipment was created, which was headed by a graduate of the department Kozyrevich I.S. The main activity of the sector was the development and implementation of protective equipment in the energy system of Belarus. The production of protective equipment was organized on the leased premises of the NIL PiRE. Subsequently, on the basis of this sector, an independent enterprise ZAO Technoshans was organized, which is the leader in the energy system of Belarus in the introduction of protective equipment of domestic and foreign production.
Temporary scientific teams (VNK) were created at the NIL PiRE from among the teachers of the Faculty of Energy, who were successfully engaged in applied scientific research on economic contracts and fundamental scientific research within the framework of state scientific programs coordinated by the Ministry of Education and the Fund for Basic Research of the Republic of Belarus. An example of the successful work of VNK is the implementation of the theme "Development of theoretical foundations and principles for the formation of efficient systems for the production, transmission and consumption of electrical and thermal energy" of the interuniversity program of fundamental research "Priority" in 1997-2000.
In 1999, associate professor of the department, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor Kalentionok E.V. was appointed head of the Research Laboratory PiRE. Associate Professor of the Department, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor Fursanov M.I. became the scientific supervisor of the Research Laboratory of PiRE.
