Dmitry Semyonovich Strebkov– the Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Doctor of Engineering, professor, the research director of the All-Russian research institute for electrification of agriculture (VIESH).
He graduated from the Moscow Institute of Agriculture Mechanization and Electrification (now Moscow State Agricultural Engineering University), Faculty of Electrification in 1959. From 1959 to 1960, he worked as an engineer at the electromechanical workshop “Mosselenergo”. In 1960 he moved to the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute for Current Sources, where he worked up to 1987 as a senior engineer, senior researcher, division head, laboratory head, department head, Deputy Chief Designer. From 1987 to 2015 he is director of the All-Russia Scientific-Research Institute for Electrification of Agriculture (VIESH), since 2015 – scientific director of VIESH. In the context of a secondary job, he worked from 1967 to 1987 as a senior teacher, associate professor and professor at the All-Union Correspondence Polytechnic Institute (chair “Fundamentals of Radio Engineering and Television”).
In 1967 he graduated from the Moscow State University n. a. M.V. Lomonosov, Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, specialty “Mathematics”). He received the Candidate ofScience (Technology)degree from the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute for Current Sources in 1971, and theDoctorofScience (Technology)degree in 1983. In 1985 he received theacademic statusof professor at the All-Union Correspondence Polytechnic Institute (Chair “Fundamentals of Radio Engineering and Television”). He became a correspondent member of the All-Union Academy of Agricultural Sciences n. a. V.I. Lenin in 1991, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences in 1993, academician of the Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences in 1997, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2013.
In 2008 to D.S. Strebkov the honorary title “The honored worker of science of the Russian Federation” was given by President V.V. Putin.
D.S. Strebkov heads research works on electrification of agriculture, as well as in the field of renewable energy. He has published 1600 scientific works (this number includes 475 inventor’s certificates and patents of the Russian Federation and 16 USA patents).
