Representatives of NIC D1 RNC CIGRE are participants of the "CASE-IN" championship

Izolyator Group of Companies and RNC CIGRE's NICKNAME D1 took part in the qualifying stage of the Student League in the field of "Electric Power Engineering" of the XI season of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", which was held in a full-time format at the National Research University "MEI" in Moscow.

The Izolyator Group of Companies was represented in the expert commission by Vladimir Ustinov, Director of the Moscow branch of the Izolyator plant, coordinator of NIC D1.

The 2023 Championship is dedicated to the topic of Technological Leadership.

The Electric Power industry area is overseen by two leading industry companies – JSC "System Operator of the Unified Energy System" and JSC "Federal Grid Company – Rosseti". The system operator invited future power engineers to participate in the development of the Russian hydropower industry. Students will develop a plan for the development of Russian hydrogenation facilities in technologically isolated power systems for the coming years and for the long term. Rosseti specialists have set an equally interesting task related to the Unified Energy System of Siberia. The participants of the competition will select an electric grid facility and develop a plan for its development until 2030, taking into account the introduction of domestic innovative technologies on it.

To solve the tasks set, the teams were asked to select one or more regions for the prospective development of hydropower resources by building a different number of hydropower facilities of different capacities, develop a calendar schedule for implementation, assess the timing and cost of implementing the proposed measures and assess the cumulative technical and economic effect of the development of hydropower resources for the region and for the whole country.

17 teams took part in the qualifying stage at the MEI National Research University in Moscow.

The following teams became the winners:

• 1st place team "Slovo" NIU MEI;
• 2nd place team "Energy Prospects" of the National Research University of Economics;
• 3rd place is taken by the team "Solvers" of the National Research University of Moscow.

The team that took the first place will represent the National Research University "MEI" in the semi-finals of the CASE-IN Championship among teams in federal districts.

For their support and active participation in the CASE-IN championship, the members of the expert commission were awarded letters of appreciation from the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation— the annual national partner of the championship.
