The paper discusses a fundamental framework for developing prospective materials and technologies to ensure the technological advantage in the North and the Arctic as well as the energy and technological safety of the industrial sector in cold climates, the analysis of remote energy systems of the Arctic of Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) is also carried out. Operation of power equipment in harsh climates leads to accelerated wear and tear and demands additional repair and reconstruction costs and stricter safety procedures. Examples are given for the application of new metal and composite materials with enhanced cold resistance and production of welding joints. A possibility is discussed for speeding up and enhancing construction reliability in the permafrost zone, reducing risks and improving human protection in developing mining and processing industries, including oil and gas production, based on the following: digitization, artificial intelligence, big and small data analysis, quantum approaches to devising and implementing eco-friendly technologies and enterprises, renewable and efficient energy and access to transport.
