16-07-2024
The Georgian Technical University is hosting the final part of “Baku Summer Energy School (BSES) 2024” for three days.
The regular 18th BSES is organized in Baku and Tbilisi by ADA University, ADA Partnership Fund, BP Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan State Company SOCAR, GL, KOLIN-Azerbaijan, and The Georgian Technical University.
The opening ceremony of “Baku Energy Summer School 2024” at the Georgian Technical University was attended by the vice-rector of GTU, associate professor Tamar Tsereteli, the deputy rector in the field of science, professor Tamar Lominadze, representatives of GTU administration, ADA University and the Embassy of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Georgia, Deans of GTU faculties, academic and scientific circles, students and summer school participants from different countries.
Opening the final part of the BSES, on behalf of the academician David Gurgenidze, the participants were welcomed by the deputy rector of the Georgian Technical in the field of science, and wished them success.
Tamar Lominadze focused on the ongoing educational-scientific collaboration and implementation of joint projects within the framework of the memorandum of cooperation between the Georgian Technical University and the Baku Diplomatic Academy (ADA). She spoke about the mission and importance of the Baku Energy Summer School.
“Our cooperation with ADA University has been going on for two years, which is headed by the rector of the Georgian Technical University, academician David Gurgenidze, and the rector of the Diplomatic Academy of Azerbaijan, professor Hafiz Pashayev.
We desire is to make the partnership much closer. The participation of the Georgian Technical University in the summer school is one of the steps in this direction, especially since cooperation with Azerbaijan is of strategic importance. The BSES certificate program brings together world-renowned scientists, practitioners, and energy policymakers, to study global and Caspian basin energy and environmental issues.
It should be noted that today in educational marketing, the Georgian Technical University is a monopolist in this direction because only our university has a modern teaching-research and expert laboratory base, created over the years, equipped with the latest technologies, both in the traditional, renewable and alternative energy fields.
In addition, we have professionals with extensive experience in the energy field. The university prepares new generations in energy, electrical engineering, engineering management, electrical and electronic engineering, technological project management, and energy industrial policy, innovation, and operations management, both in Bachelor’s, Master’s, and doctorate degrees.
Energy Summer School, implemented in partnership with ADA University, is our first large-scale joint project. In the future, we plan to hold educational trainings, workshops, and scientific conferences in which the ethnic Azerbaijani youth of the Georgian Technical University will actively participate.
We think that through cooperation, we will contribute to the rapprochement of the scientific-academic spaces of our countries and the development of cooperation. On behalf of the rector, academician David Gurgenidze, we wish success to the BSES participants”, said Tamar Lominadze.
As the deputy rector of GTU noted, 11 countries participate in BSES, among them Georgia, Azerbaijan, the United States of America, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Vietnam, China, and the countries of South Arabia. Accordingly, within the framework of BSES, the Georgian Technical University hosts the leading scientists, practitioners, and representatives of energy companies from the mentioned countries.
The participants of BSES were welcomed by the executive head of the Institute of Education, Development and Diplomacy of ADA University, Professor Nargiz Ismailova, the head of the Department of Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy Policy and Sustainable Development of the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia Margalita Arabidze and the second secretary of the Embassy of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Georgia Ramiz Hajizada.
The two-day BSES sessions will discuss a wide range of issues such as a holistic geopolitical and geoeconomic approach to the Trans-Caspian region, the Caspian-EU Green Energy Corridor, green energy opportunities in the region, regional pipeline and energy security development, energy law and energy economics, environmental issues, climate change, green energy initiatives and COP29 expectations, SOCAR and bp strategic perspectives and more.
Among the speakers are Princeton University (USA) Professor Michael Reynolds and ADA University Professor Damjan Krnjevic;
Maka Jishkariani, the professor of the Department of Electrical Power and Electromechanics of the Georgian Technical University; Eric Viala, representative of the American company Deloitte; Salome Janelidze, a member of the Board of the Training Center of the National Energy and Water Supply Regulatory Commission of Georgia (SEMEC), representatives of the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia and other participants.
