L adies and gentlemen! The genuine goal of science as I see it is to enable people to use the scientific achievements in their daily routine . Being involved into high technologies, I do realize how important it is to make sure the technologies implementation
results are used for human good only .Our country and the whole world face complex tasks: increasing
energy efficiency, achieving greater reliability and rationality of energy sources use . The modern civilization needs energy as much as oxygen . We can’t afford letting it suffocate due to indispensable growth of energy consumption . The world’s science is about to make its crucial throw, so we have to work way in advance too .
In this environment the Global Energy is not just a prestigious in-ternational prize awarded for achievements in the field of energy, but the remarkable phenomenon which draws the attention of society to serious problems that need to be solved . That’s why we speak more often of the green energy, of smart natural resources use, of searching for the new energy sources . And this is why Global Energy pays more and more at-tention to work with young scientists - they will lead the science to a new level complying to tough requirements of contemporaneity .
Eugeni Velehov, the academician
Greeting word from Eugeni Velihov, Global Energy Board of Trustees Chairman

D ear Friends! As previous years, 2010 was full of important events . One of the core things, of course, was the fact that Russian president handed the Global Energy Prize to two outstanding scientists of the present: Boris Paton and Alexander Leontiev .
We marked the end of the VII-th Youth Research Global Energy Contest in De-cember . Six teams of young scientists were awarded with commemorative diplomas and grants . The importance of work performed by young scientists, undoubted eco-nomic effect following the implementation of their developments has been highly evaluated by the commission of experts .
Earlier this year Global Energy launched the new program called Energy of Knowledge . In the framework of this program we started a cycle of monthly inter-active lectures performed by laureates of Global Energy Prize: thousands students, post graduates, teachers of leading Russian universities besides listening to lectures delivered by great scientists will now be able to ask them questions real-time .
The results of Russia-wide Energy of Kids projects contest are quite impressive: for the last 2 years we received about 5,000 projects from 300 Russian cities and vil-lages . The winners are going to visit Moscow again: the Energy of Word has become a trans-border prize, as in 2010 we made a decision to hold Energy of Word together with the PRESSzvanie cross-border business journalism competition, the interna-tional part of the competition is organized by the famous Saatchi&Saatchi agency .
The coming year offers us even more interesting challenges . There will be much serious work, and we do believe that by uniting our efforts we will make the world way better .

Global Energythe International Energy PrizeAbout Global Energy
G lobal Energy is one of the most prestigious prizes awarded for outstanding theoretical, experimental and applied surveys, new developments, inventions and discoveries in the field of energy and energetics . Any person can be a laureate disregarding his or her citizenship or nationality .
The prize was founded in 2002, the idea of the prize was put forward by a group of Russian famous scientists supported by the largest energy companies and approved by Russian president .
“I am sure the Global Energy will be a brand name of fundamental science in the energetics field. It will inspire new breaking through surveys and of course will help to improve the international relationships which are so important to us… You know, I do think our Global Energy Prize is becoming quite serious and profound getting closer to such international prizes as Nobel prize”.
DmITry mEDVEDEV, The President of the Russian Federation(2007):
“…This prize is awarded for top notch scientific achievements in the field of energetics. And I would like to underline: world knows no similar ones. The international Global Energy Prize was intended to be the new millennium prize. I think it is quite symbolic and natural that it has been established in Russia and under Russian initiative: one of the world’s acknowledged leader of energy market, by a country, which gained wide international collaboration experience in this field …”

History of the Award
VLADImIr PuTIn, The President of the Russian Federation(2003):
The representatives of three leading Russian energy companies (Gazprom, RAO UES of Russia and YUKOS) decided to start the Global Energy fund on October 10, 2002; already in November, during the EU-Russia summit in Brussels the Russian president Vladimir Putin announced Russia had founded the international energy prize Global Energy .
A press conference devoted to establishment of the international Global Energy Prize has been held on November 25, 2002 . The participants were: Nobel Laureate, academician Zhores Alferov, Russian Academy of Sciences president, academician Yuriy Osipov, managers of the companies that founded the non-commercial partnership: Gazprom, RAO UES of Russia, YUKOS, the aide to the president of Russia Sergei Yastrzhembsky . During the press conference there were announced: Global Energy inducement fund for 2003 (which made 900 thousand dollars), Board of Trustees and International Award committee members, basic guidelines of their work, the procedure for conducting the scientific competition and awarding the prize .
The first awarding ceremony took place in Konstantinovsky Palace, Strelna in June 2003 . The president of Russia Vladimir Putin handed to laureates the golden medals and commemorative diplomas . Letter of congratulations was read out on behalf of US President George Bush . Russian Kommersant Rating placed Global Energy fourth in the list of international awards after Nobel prize, Rene Descartes prize, and King Faisal International Prize in the field of natural sciences and medicine . Several years after the Global Energy Prize will seriously be called a “Russian Nobel prize”
Survey topics considerably grew in number and now cover not only such directions as atomic, general, plasma energetics, heat power engineering, fuel elements, hydrogen energetics, electrical energetics, thermophysics, materials, but also includes the nucleosynthesis, thermonuke, renewable solar energy
The idea of founding an international Global Energy Prize belongs to the group of famous Russian scientists. This initiative was supported by scientific community and major Russian energy corporations.

and energy resources (extraction processing and transportation) . Number of scientists with the right to put nominees forward increased several times . If at the time when the prize was just established there were only 400 of scientists, it made 1200 in 2007, and 1500 in 2010 .
Many remarkable Russian and overseas scientists became laureates of the Global Energy over the years of its existence, namely 22 people from nine countries: Great Britain, Germany, Island, Canada, Russia, USA, Ukraine, France and Japan .
Global Energy Attributes
The Logo
T he core of Global Energy logo composition is a semiabstract image of a man reaching out to stars . A star is traditionally considered as a symbol of something unexplored, new . Besides, a star is associated with such notions as victory, the highest quality . Variety of stars
symbolize both the energetics and the achievements made in this field . A man’s figure in this context personifies cravings of mankind to master new sources of energy allowing technological progress extension and giving an impact for further discoveries and accomplishments . “A man lighting up the stars” (that’s the tentative name of the logo) is a symbol of man’s dreams of future, a symbol of new findings and titanic efforts for civilization’s good in one of the most important fields of science and industry – energetics .
Global Energy logo reflects several key ideas which indispensable in visual accompaniment of the new international prize . As a matter of fact this is a HUMAN BEING, lighting up stars or striving to cognize the stars – THE SUN – essentials of life and source of Earth’s energy . Longing to stars is longing to success, to learn the depths, to the true, striving for something completely new, unknown and noble .
Red colour is the concentrated expression of energy, fire . Besides, the red stars are definitely associated with Russia, giving clear idea of the prize origin, foundation of which was indeed initiated by Russia .
