Abstract: The negative side of the high rate of development of the electric power industry is the increase in the influence of electromagnetic radiation on humans. Unlike an electric field, a magnetic field is not shielded by personal protective equipment. Personnel exposed to industrial frequency magnetic fields are exposed to the negative effects of radiation on the nervous, cardiovascular, immune, and endocrine systems. Objective: to study and analyze the prevalence of diseases of the endocrine and cardiovascular systems in workers employed in the electric power industry. Materials and methods: 598 employees of the electric power industry were examined. The analysis of the survey data was carried out on the basis of descriptive statistics (relative values (%), the number of cases (n)) using the Microsoft Office Excel 2016 software package. Results: out of 598 men, 29.8% were obese, 16.7% had cardiovascular diseases and 2.7% had type 2 diabetes. The structure of morbidity by seniority groups was also analyzed and the dependence of the prevalence of morbidity on the length of service was revealed. Conclusion: the analysis of the obtained data indicates a high prevalence of diseases of the cardiovascular system and obesity among employees of the electric power industry exposed to industrial frequency magnetic fields.

In communication and communication devices, power equipment, relay protection and automation terminals, in the electric power industry of "smart" cities and homes, in industry, in railway transport, microprocessor-based relay protection and automation devices, distributed generation installations, including renewable energy sources, and electricity storage, as well as "intelligent" automated information and measurement systems are beginning to be used. Contactless converters of direct and alternating currents of control and control systems are widely used in them. Their disadvantages are a narrow range of controlled currents, large dimensions and weight. Therefore, it is important to eliminate them. The paper discusses the general principles of construction of contactless converters of large direct currents, the main requirements for them, and shows the results of the development of one of the options proposed by us, universal contactless magneto-modulation converters of large direct currents with an extended range for various control and control systems. They differ from the known ones by an extended controlled range with small dimensions and weight, and increased accuracy and sensitivity. The converter has a simple and technological design with low material consumption and cost, and can control large direct currents, as well as alternating currents, without contact. The paper considers the errors from external magnetic fields of universal contactless converters of control and control systems. It is shown that the error from the external magnetic field does not exceed 0.08% if the number of sections of the measuring winding is even and with their symmetrical arrangement, and with their even increase-the error decreases. At the same time, the developed contactless converters can be widely used in industry, metallurgy, railway transport, agriculture, water and farming, as well as in the electric power industry of “smart” cities and homes and for checking electric meters at the place of their installation.

Subject. This article deals with the issues relating to improving integrated reporting in terms of dovetailing strategic objectives with capital changes. Objectives. The article aims to develop a system of indicators for disclosure of capital types in integrated reporting of electricity generating companies, as well as recommendations aimed at implementing the fundamental concepts and guiding principles of integrated reporting. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of analysis and synthesis, comparison, generalization, and abstraction. As a case study, we conduct a comparative analysis of the disclosure of six types of capital by the largest electricity generating companies, namely PAO Inter RAO, AO Rosenergoatom and PAO RusHydro. Results. The article formulates proposals for disclosure of capital information to address such a lack of accountability as a contradiction to the principle of coherence. It proposes a system of indicators (core and additional) for disclosure of six types of capital by electricity generating companies. Conclusions. A significant reporting problem is the lack of correlation between key strategic objectives and capital changes. The formulated recommendations for disclosure of capital information can help solve this problem, and increase the attractiveness of the integrated report for capital providers.

The digital economy implies a structural transformation in many industries, including the energy sector, without taking into account the state specifics of the industry, for which full-fledged digitalization can be harmful. The aim of the study is to develop a methodology and determine the readiness of countries for digitalization in the electric power industry, taking into account all the main industry groups of factors. The paper analyzes the concept of “energy transition” and defines the indices that are applied to assess this transition at the global level. A system of indices is proposed to determine the degree of readiness for a digital transition in the electric power industry as one of the components of the “energy transition” and the most possible scenario for the transformation of this industry in Russia. The analysis of key areas of digital energy development is presented. The degree of readiness of the leading 100 countries in terms of GDP for digitalization in the electric power industry according to the proposed methodology has been calculated, and the further direction of basic research in this direction has been indicated. Conclusions have been drawn on the appropriateness of developing state programs and the main directions to which DM decision should be drawn with due desire to digitize the industry have been highlighted.
