RusHydro participates in the largest engineering championship "CASE-IN"

For the second time, RusHydro has supported the International CASE-IN Championship, the largest engineering competition in Russia and the CIS countries. Representatives of the company took part in the opening of the Student League of the championship in Novosibirsk today and will be among the experts evaluating the work of the participants in the field of "Electric Power Industry".

 The CASE-IN Championship is a team competition for solving engineering cases dedicated to real production problems and developed based on materials from industry enterprises. In 2018, more than 4,000 students from 60 universities from 43 regions of Russia and CIS countries will participate in the Student League. The results of the work on the cases will be evaluated by about 1,000 experts – representatives of leading companies in the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes, scientific and educational institutions, and government authorities.

 RusHydro joined the project in 2017. With the support of the company, the CASE-IN qualifying stages are being held at the Volga branch of the Moscow Power Engineering University and the Sayano-Shushensk branch of the Siberian Federal University. In 2017, the SIBFU team won the bronze medal in the final of the championship in Moscow.

 The championship also involves RusHydro employees under the age of 35, who compete in solving cases in the League of Young Professionals. In 2017, they presented a project on the development and energy supply of hard-to-reach Arctic territories at the Russian Energy Week in Moscow. In 2018, RusHydro's young specialists will develop a project for the technological development of the Russian fuel and energy complex.

Support for educational projects and initiatives is an important area of RusHydro's Concept of Advanced Human Resource Development "From New School to Workplace." It is aimed at the targeted development of key competencies of future hydropower specialists from an early school age, training students in energy specialties, taking into account the requirements of PJSC RusHydro, and creating the necessary conditions for the effective work of young employees.
