• redefinition of the SI units
• fine-structure constant
• anomalous magnetic moment of the electron
• Avogadro and Planck constants

The latest high-precision experimental results and theoretical calculations to determine the value of the fine-structure constant a are analyzed. These indicate a possible increase in its value by approximately 0.5.10(-8)alpha compared with the CODATA data (2006). It is shown that this shift in the value of a may play an important role in the new system of units, including the solution of the problem of matching the results of measurements of the Avogadro and Planck constants obtained by different methods (in the Avogadro project and by means of the watt balance).
