The qualifying stage of the international engineering CASE-IN championship took place in Volzhsky

On April 9, the qualifying stage took place in the Volgograd region The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. This is one of the projects of the Russia – the Land of Opportunities platform, according to GTRK Volgograd-TRV.

Students of the technical university from Volzhsky took part in the selection. Technical university students are kind of rivals today. Each of the 9 teams was given 10 days to develop ideas for the most effective use of new digital technologies based on the current energy system of the Far East.

Mahsud Sultanov, director of the branch of the National Research University "MEI" in Volzhsky, noted: "The topic of today's case is interesting. It is at the forefront of the development of our economy – this is the digital transformation of energy. The students will present their developed works to the expert commission. These are the issues of implementing new digital technologies in the ECO of the East."

Recent adjustments have been made to the project. We will have to defend this teamwork before an expert commission. Perhaps in the future, some of the ideas expressed here will find real application in the field of electric power industry.

The Energia team considers participation in the qualifying stage of the international engineering CASE-IN championship to be an excellent opportunity for young people to prove themselves. And to interest future employers in their own projects.

Natalia Bondarenko, a student of a technical university, noted: "The uniqueness of our solution lies in the fact that we offer digitalization of the entire energy system, namely, the use of cloud storage."

"We are the profile of a hydroelectric power plant. I have a great desire to become an engineer in the future, to work at the Volga hydroelectric power station"- said a student of a technical university Dmitry Gomazkov.

Such qualifying stages are held in 34 regions of the country. More than 100 technical educational institutions generate ideas. Students' projects are evaluated not just by experts, but by managers and specialists of the industrial companies of the energy complex of the region. In their opinion, the level of preparation of students' presentations is getting higher every year.

The Schrodinger Code team representing the Volga branch of the Moscow Power Engineering Institute won this qualifying round. Now we have a trip to Moscow. There, Volga residents will compete with future engineers from other cities – already in the finals.

The goal of the championship is to make engineering and technical education popular and attract promising young specialists to the fuel and energy complex. After all, the future of the country's energy industry depends on today's students, no matter how loud it may sound.
