Polotsk State University presents solutions for energy development

On April 16, the 13th qualifying stage took place at the Euphrosyne Polotsk Polotsk State University. The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship in the field of "Electric Power Industry".

The history of the Championship began in 2013, and during this time it has transformed from a student competition into a large-scale ecosystem that unites more than 100 schools and universities, more than 170 industry companies, more than 6,000 mentors, experts and curators, as well as many services and resources. The championship has become a symbol of unity and inspiration, where each participant makes a unique contribution to the common cause, creating a unique synergy of knowledge and opportunities.

Greetings to the participants of the qualifying stage were conveyed by the founder of the International Engineering Championship CASE-IN Artem Korolev.

She addressed the participants of the championship with a welcoming speech Ekaterina Galeshova, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, Polotsk University: "I would like to note that participation in such professional competitions always brings new impressions, experience and engineering competencies that are so in demand today. I would like to thank all the participants and mentors of the teams for the solutions presented. I am sure that all of them correspond to the current level of development of the industry and meet the requirements of innovation. I wish all participants good luck, good mood, cheerfulness and positivity, and the best team to qualify for the championship finals!"

5 teams participated in the championship Faculty of Computer Science and Electronics Polotsk State University named after Euphrosyne of Polotsk and one team of the Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University named after B.N. Yeltsin, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

Over the past ten days, the teams have been developing possible options for the construction of high-voltage lines for the transmission of certain DC and AC power in an energy-deficient region of the Russian Federation.

The teams presented their design solutions in the form of presentations, which were then defended before the expert commission. The experts were the leading teachers Departments of Energy and Electronics Faculty of Computer Science and Electronics.

In a hard-fought battle, the third place was taken by the KRSU Energy team Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University named after B.N. Yeltsin. The second place was taken by the Energy team 2 courses of the specialty "Electric power industry and electrical engineering".

The winner of the qualifying stage was the Energoforsazh team, whose solution was noted by experts as the most complete and comprehensive. The composition of the team:

• Artyom Shalsky, 4th year student of the specialty "Electronic systems and technologies"
• Andrey Ilmovich, 4th year student of the specialty "Electronic systems and technologies"
• Vladislav Prozorov, 3rd year student of the specialty "Electronic Systems and Technologies"

Vladislav Prozorov shared his impressions: "It was the first time we participated in such an event, and it was a real challenge: short deadlines, a large amount of work on a new topic for us. But we did it. Yes, I had to stay up late, sorting out the difficult moments in solving the case, sometimes the whole solution was completely reworked. But at the same time, every day brought new knowledge and valuable teamwork experience. I believe that the key factor for the success of the team at the qualifying stage was the proper distribution of tasks and time between the participants. For me personally, participation in the championship is not only the improvement of professional skills, but also the opportunity to apply the knowledge gained at the university to solve a real engineering problem. It was difficult, but very interesting!"
