Aleksandr Hlebnikov

Aleksandr Hlebnikov is a Researcher at the Department of Energy Technology, Tallinn University of Technology. His work focuses on optimizing district heating systems, energy efficiency improvements, and integrated assessment of greenhouse gas emissions. He has contributed extensively to studies involving renewable energy integration (e.g., solar and seawater heat pumps), CHP configurations, and urban energy infrastructure planning.

His research emphasizes practical applications, such as converting Tallinn’s historic Old Town to district heating and developing methodologies for large-scale network improvements. Key areas include thermal energy storage systems, corrosion analysis in boiler components, and energy policy frameworks for biomass utilization in rural regions. He collaborates on projects like the Smart District Heating Systems initiative and maintains an active publication record in energy engineering and environmental science.

Notable contributions include optimizing pipe insulation techniques, analyzing accumulator tank dynamics in power plants, and assessing corrosion resistance in superheater tubes. His work bridges theoretical analysis with real-world infrastructure challenges, particularly in Estonia and Baltic regions.
