From September 16 to 19, 2024, a series of pilot trainings titled "Process Energy Audit" commenced as part of the TEAD Project (Training for Energy Auditors and Designers).

The training program is fully aligned with the professional standard "Process Energy Auditor" and was developed by leading European energy auditors, as well as Ukrainian energy auditors who directly contributed to the development of the professional standard. Among them are Power Supply Department lecturers Anatoliy Chernyavskiy, Olena Borychenko, and Yuriy Veremiychuk, who are also part of the training team for this course.

From 23 to 26 September 2024, the Ukrainian delegation from Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute took part in the Advanced Research Workshop «Energy infrastructure resilience in response to war and other hazards» within the framework of the NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme, which took place at the Ignacy Łukasiewicz Rzeszow University of Technology, Poland. The main goal of the Workshop is to unite international efforts to develop effective approaches to protecting and restoring energy infrastructure, especially in emergency situations caused by war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters or cyber threats. The Ukrainian delegation consisted of scientists from Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute (Oksana Vovk, Natalia Zuievska, Liubov Shaidetska, Olena Borychenko, Anatolii Cherniavskyi, Olena Yarmoliuk, Vitalii Opryshko, Viktor Gurieiev, Olga Demydenko), NTU Dnipro Polytechnic (Yurii Papaika), and representatives of the State Labour Service of Ukraine.
