Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of the activities of the Kuzbass – Donbass Research and Academic Center established in 2019 as part of the national project Science and Universities. In 2024, the center was transformed into an interregional entity, uniting the efforts of Kuzbass and Donbass to address pressing challenges in the coal industry and the development of clean energy. The article examines the key achievements of the center, including the implementation of the comprehensive scientific and technical program Clean Coal – Green Kuzbass, aimed at developing and introducing innovative technologies in coal mining and processing. Special attention is given to the transfer of technologies to the real sector of the economy, as well as the creation of conditions for attracting young scientists through the organization of youth laboratories. Over five years of operation, the center has developed and implemented 230 promising technologies and obtained 634 patents. The article emphasizes the strategic role of the Kuzbass – Donbass Research and Academic Center in forming a sustainable model of scientific and industrial cooperation, contributing to Russia’s technological leadership in the mining industry and strengthening its position on the international stage.
