The paper analyzes the problems that have arisen in universities in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic using the example of the international educational master's program of double degrees “Electric Vehicles and Energy-Saving Technologies” (EV&EST). Riga Technical University and Kharkiv National Automobile and Highway University are participating in the development of the EV&EST program. A brief description of the EV&EST program and the priority tasks that were set for its implementation are given. Problems that hinder the timely completion of some tasks are identified. A brief description of the distance course, which was developed within the framework of the EV&EST program in the Moodle educational environment, is given. A complex for laboratory and practical exercises based on a solar charging station for electric vehicles, which was developed under conditions of adaptive quarantine, is described. Laboratory and practical exercises have been developed at this complex.
