IGEU students presented solutions for the development of heat and electric power industry

In 2025, the organizers of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship were the Reliable Change Foundation, the Non-profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders, the Astralogica company and the presidential platform Russia – the Land of Opportunities.

Engineering cases on electric power and thermal power were developed by the partners of the Championship: JSC "System Operator of the Unified Energy System", PJSC "Rosseti", LLC "Gazprom Energoholding".

The case of the direction "Thermal Power Engineering" is devoted to the topic: "A proposal for the installation of a heat supply system for a consumer with a maximum load of 1.0 Gcal/h, located at a considerable distance from a centralized source of heat generation. Consideration of non-gas heat supply sources and thermal energy accumulators".

The case of the "Electric Power Industry" direction is devoted to the topic: "Development of technical measures for the construction of overhead lines from generation (for example, Novovoronezh or Kursk NPP) to an energy-deficient area using alternating or permanent technologies with technical and economic justification."

This year, 80 students (20 teams) have applied to participate, including participants from Zabaikalsky State University (ZabGU). Not everyone coped with the task, and 18 teams demonstrated their solutions in the qualifying stage. ZabGU students participated in the distance format.

The decisions were evaluated by expert commissions consisting of leading teachers of IGEU and representatives of energy companies.

The prizes were distributed as follows:
