Students of Khanty-Mansiysk and Omsk are semi–finalists of the CASE-IN championship

The semi-finalists of the XI season of the CASE-IN championship have been determined at Omsk Polytechnic University. They were students of OmSTU and YUZHE as part of the "Team-E" and "Under tension" teams. According to the results of the next stage, the leaders who will be eligible to participate in the final will be determined – it will be held in Moscow at the end of May 2023.

The qualifying stage was held in the field of "Electric power Industry". It brought together 40 students representing three universities: Omsk State Technical University, Ugra State University and Surgut State University. 10 teams presented solutions to engineering cases, the tasks for which were developed by companies in the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes, the nuclear industry and related industries. The participants' work was evaluated by leading specialists from JSC SO UES Omsk RDU, PJSC ROSSETI and Gazpromneft – Energoservice LLC, together with OmSTU teachers.

Andrey Tatevosyan, Dean of the OmSTU Energy Institute: "For the sixth year now, the Technical University has been becoming a venue for the qualifying stage of the CASE-IN championship. This is a great opportunity for the guys to get acquainted with the real problems of enterprises. Each case is a difficult job, collecting a lot of information. It should be noted that there is no single solution, as well as no losers, but there is an opportunity to look at the problematic things that exist in the energy sector today in different ways. I am sure that each participant was able to test their level of knowledge and gain invaluable experience." 

The students had to solve a case from PJSC ROSSETI. The task was to develop an electric grid facility located in the Unified Energy System of Siberia. They took into account the priorities of the state policy in the field of the electric grid complex and the directions of the company's innovative development, external challenges, global trends, the need to achieve technological leadership through domestic developments and effective personnel policy, while taking into account the growing demand for electricity.

The podium as a result looks like this:

1st place – "Under tension", Ugra State University;

2nd place – "Team-E", Omsk State Technical University;

3rd place – PROgress, Omsk State Technical University.
