On 12 and 14 March 2024, the Izolyator Group provided experts for the qualification stages of the Student League in the Electric Power Industry section of the main season of the XII Case-in International Engineering Championship, which went in full-time format in Moscow universities.

The Student League of the Case-in International Engineering Championship is a competition consisting of remote qualification rounds based in universities, face-to-face semi-finals in federal districts with a possibility of remote connection, and the final on-site stage in Moscow. The main season’s competitions are held from February to May, the autumn cup — from September to December. Case-in International Engineering Championship is an international competition system for solving engineering cases for schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fuel and energy and mineral resource sectors, nuclear industry and related industries. The cases are based on the most relevant industry tasks proposed by the partner companies of the championship. The solutions offered by the participants are evaluated by an expert commission consisting of representatives of government bodies, leading companies, universities and industry research and educational centers. The project is supported by the autonomous non—profit organization ‘Russia is a country of opportunities’ and is implemented within the framework of the federal project ‘Social Elevators for everyone’ of the national project ‘Education’.

The Izolyator Group contributed in two qualification stages: on March 12 at the National Research University ‘Moscow Power Engineering Institute’ (MPEI) and on March 14 at the National University of Science and Technology MISIS.

The group was represented in the expert committee by the Director of Moscow Branch of Izolyator Plant, Coordinator of CIGRE National Study Committee D1 Vladimir Ustinov.
