A team of students from Ivanovo Energy University won silver medals.

The jury noted their project of parallel operation of the power systems of Siberia and the Far East. They are still students, but they are already ready to solve problems on a global scale.The championship is part of the Russia - Land of Opportunity project line, and it gives young professionals a chance to experience in practice what challenges they will face in the future.

Ivanovo students are among the best at the CASE-IN International Engineering Championship. The team from the Energy University was awarded silver medals for the project to connect the Far East to the unified energy system of the country. Today, Russia's leading industry companies face similar challenges. And students have to answer the same questions that professional designers face.

"What connections and capacities will you be able to transfer from the ECO of the East?"

"There are capacities supplied from the cascades of the Vilyuysky hydroelectric power plants, there are capacities supplied from the Yakutskaya GRES and the Yakutskaya GRES Novaya."

"After 220, they will be able to push through about two hundred megawatts of the cross-section under consideration, which we watched. It will work out quite well."

The guys have been exploring the possibility of parallel operation of the power systems of Siberia and the Far East for several weeks. They made all the calculations themselves, and now they know how important it is to connect all the energy systems of a huge country into a single whole.

"In Siberia and the East, consumption generation is growing unevenly - somewhere there is a deficit, somewhere there is a surplus, that is, everything needs to be pumped back and forth. And now it's very difficult. That's why we need to combine all this in the future.", - told by an IGEU student Ksenia Molchagina.

The students say: They had not encountered such tasks during their studies, and it was interesting for them to test their knowledge in solving a real problem.

"Learning theorems, learning laws is all great, but when you come to your real job, when you need to face it, and you already have some accumulated baggage, accumulated experience and the ability to cope with all this, it's incredibly pleasant and it's a big plus of participating in such projects.", - noted by the IGEU student Alexander Sidorov.

The international engineering Championship "CASE-IN" solves such problems. It is part of the Russia - Land of Opportunity project line. More than five hundred young professionals have proven themselves internationally. They solved cases on a common topic - "digital transformation". Today, this is one of the priorities for both the Russian and global economies. And there is already a generation of professionals who are ready to solve such problems in our region.
