PJSC Mosenergo will represent Russia in the final of the prestigious international competition of the CIS countries

The solution of the case inspires the development of breakthrough industry-developing technologies. The employees of Mosenergo PJSC, who will represent Russia in the final of the League of Young CIS Specialists of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship, are confident of this. 

The national qualifying stages of the League were attended by young employees of the largest industry companies from 7 countries. The Carbon Footprint team (Mosenergo PJSC) was exempted from passing them, as in mid-2025 it became the winner of the main season of the CASE-IN championship.

The victory for the power engineers was brought by the developed digital twin, which allows real-time monitoring of production processes, logistics and production safety, as well as modeling scenarios and optimizing equipment operation. The main benefit of the solution for society is to reduce environmental impacts by minimizing resource and energy overruns, as well as accident prevention through predictive analytics. This increases the efficiency of mining, reduces risks for workers and promotes the transition to a more sustainable use of minerals, the team members said.

However, this is not the only success of the Carbon Footprint at the CASE-IN: in 2023 and 2024, the team took the lead in the Special Energy League.

Over the years of participating in the championship, Mosenergo's specialists have managed to hone their case-solving skills, as well as learn how to assign roles and communicate effectively.

"The acquired experience has taught us to combine theoretical knowledge with practice, which has helped us achieve results even in conditions of high uncertainty, – said the captain of the Carbon Footprint team Timur Alimov. – The championship is valuable for young professionals with the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge in practice, solving real-world industry cases. For employers, this is a chance to see innovative approaches, evaluate future employees, and inspire fresh ideas into their projects. The event creates an environment for networking: participants share experiences, and companies notice talents and trends. It is important that young people here learn to work in a team, adapt quickly and present solutions, and business understands the demands of the new generation." 

At the final of the CIS League of Young Specialists, which will be held on May 18-23, 2026 in Moscow, Mosenergo PJSC employees will face a new challenge: they will have to present innovative approaches to life cycle management of engineering and industrial projects to the industry community, combining the principles of circular economy, technological sovereignty and environmental responsibility. In addition, the team will have to justify the feasibility of integrating its project into the CIS and propose practical mechanisms for interstate cooperation.

In the final competition, specialists from Russia will compete with their colleagues from Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. The winners and prize-winners of the finals will have opportunities for career growth and further implementation of their projects. 

The League is organized by the Reliable Shift Foundation and the International Union of Instrument Makers and Information and Telecommunication Technology Specialists. The competition is supported by the Executive Committee of the CIS Electric Power Council, Rossotrudnichestvo and the Russian Energy Agency of the Russian Ministry of Energy.
