Smart schoolchildren to the Smart City: the results of the School's "CASE–IN" League have been summed up

More than 130 teams of 9th – 11th grade students applied to participate in the IIIseason School League The International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN». The authors of the best solutions will present them at the next stage of the competition at Tyumen Industrial University. Talented students will defend their ideas to experts on innovative development of power supply systems in Russian cities.

By the organizers The "CASE-IN" School League They perform Reliable Change Foundation, NP "Youth Forum of Mining Leaders", LLC "AstraLogica" with the support of The Russian School Movement and leading technical universities in Russia, including Tyumen Industrial University and National Research University "MEI".

The purpose of the CASE-IN School League competitions is to popularize knowledge about energy among schoolchildren, to form a positive and responsible attitude towards this field of knowledge, and to identify the most promising students interested in acquiring professions in the energy industry.

The case for schoolchildren "Power supply of the city of the future" was developed within the framework of a single topic "Digital transformation" The CASE-IN International Engineering Championship is in the new season and is related to the relevance of digitalization for the Russian fuel and energy complex: energy and the Smart City area are included in the national program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation".

The first stage of the competition was held in absentia.

In accordance with the terms of the case, the students presented a situation in which Russia stopped operating nuclear and thermal power plants (NPP and thermal power plants) in 2030 due to depletion of fossil energy resources and a sharp deterioration in the environmental situation. This has led to a sharp increase in demand for technologies that ensure efficient production, transmission, distribution and consumption of electricity, as well as its savings.

The students, having selected specific cities in Russia, formulated solutions for the power supply system of the city of the future and developed measures to implement these solutions.

The ideas of the participants were evaluated by experts from among representatives of energy companies and specialized universities in Russia and identified the most interesting and reasoned solutions.

Following the results of the correspondence stage, 54 teams representing 27 regions of Russia were invited to the next stage – face–to-face competitions, which will be held at Tyumen Industrial University on May 13-15, 2019.

The participants and winners of the CASE-IN School League will receive a well-deserved award.
