"Energetic solutions": AltSTU team became the winner of the "CASE-IN" qualifying stage

Altai State Technical University hosted the qualifying stage of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" in the field of "Electric power Industry". This year's championship was held using remote communication technologies.

The student teams of AltSTU, RII and Gorno-Altaisk University presented their projects in online format.

Addressing the participants, Andrey Markov, Rector of AltSTU, noted the relevance of the topic: "This is not the first time we have participated in such a championship. This year, the CASE-IN raised a very relevant topic – "Technological modernization", we really have something to modernize. I wish you only one thing – victory and good luck!"

The winner was the AltSTU "Path of Cables" team, which solved the case "Strengthening intersystem links between ECO systems of the Urals, Siberia and Kazakhstan". The AltSTU team includes Nikita Taranin, Ilya Pavlichenko, Ekaterina Rassokhina and Sofya Bukhalina, a student at the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI. The scientific leader of the team is Igor Vladimirovich Belitsyn, Associate Professor of the Department of Power Supply of Industrial Enterprises. 

Igor Belitsyn, the team leader, talks about the case: "Our project is aimed at solving the problem of intersystem connections. For example, in the event of a major electrical accident in Siberia, we will have uninterrupted power supply either from the Urals or from Kazakhstan. It's the same with the Urals and Kazakhstan."

The students will represent Altai Krai in the final of the championship, which will traditionally be held in Moscow, where more than 7,000 students from 57 educational institutions in Russia and the CIS countries will compete for the title of winners.
