The existence of the energy-concentration effect in the 
regions between the inclusions of a high-contrast heavy-charged composite 
material has been verified in the process of numerical solution of 
the problem on heat conduction in this material. The formation of 
a high-energy region (energy "neck") under different conditions depending 
on the contrast range of the composite-material components and the 
distance between the inclusions has been investigated.
