RUSSIA POWER 2010 TO BRING YOUNG TALENT TO POWER INDUSTRY
Russia Power, a leading professional event in the Russian energy sector, will continue its unique Youth Programme this year. The programme aims to bring young, skilful and enthusiastic talent to the Russian power industry and to raise awareness of career opportunities. The programme now features a new essay writing competition, the winner of which will be announced during a stylish awards ceremony to take place on 26 March, the third day of Russia Power.
Around 100 premier final year engineering and science students, postgraduates and young industry professionals have been selected to participate in an exclusive networking session with programme partners and leading power companies including Enel, ODK JSC (United Engine Corporation), EvroSibEnergo, Schneider Electric, System Operator of Russia and ABB Automation. The youth participants will also be able to attend the Russia Power conference and exhibition as complementary delegates for the third day of the event.
“The debut of the Youth Programme last year received very positive feedback from the industry and academic community and we are excited to continue the programme this year,” said Nigel Blackaby, Conference Chairman at PennWell. “We see this as an excellent opportunity to encourage skilled students and contribute to bringing fresh talent in to one of the leading sectors of the Russian economy.”
“This year we have received more than 500 applications from institutes across Russia from students interested in participating in the programme, and we have selected the best of the best,” said Olga Golyshenkova, Executive Director of the International Association for Corporate Education (MAKO).
A new feature, the essay writing competition, has been added to the youth programme this year to help identify the most brilliant students and graduates. A special ceremony to announce the winner of the writing contest in style will undoubtedly make this year’s Youth Programme even more compelling to our participants across Russia.
MAKO members, acting as patrons for this year’s Youth Programme, have reviewed student applications and submitted papers. These include RusHydro, Rosatom, InterRAO UES and Graduate School of Business Administration, Moscow State University. The resumes of the selected young people have been distributed to the sponsoring companies to enable them to choose the candidates they would most like to meet at Russia Power 2010.
Enel, EvroSibEnergo, Schneider Electric, System Operator of Russia, ODK JSC (United Engine Corporation) and ABB Automation are the key corporate sponsors of the 2010 Youth Programme. This year, the programme is also supported by Russia’s Federal Agency for Youth Affairs (FAYA).

RUSSIA POWER-2010 ADDS NEW HYDROPOWER FOCUS TO MEET INDUSTRY REQUIREMENTS
The Russia Power Conference and Exhibition, one of the key events in the Russian energy industry, already established for its unrivalled coverage of the gas, coal and nuclear power sectors, will feature a brand new additional element addressing hydropower this year. A special focus on hydroelectric power, dams and civil structures has been added to the conference programme, and the exhibition will boast a dedicated Hydro Pavilion.
Experts from 17 countries in Europe, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, and North America, as well as top specialists from Russian giants such as RusHydro and Power Machines will contribute to the exchange of know-how and share cutting-edge technologies, state-of-the-art practices and proven strategies for managing hydro assets.
“We are very excited about this new element to Russia Power’s agenda as we strive to meet the current requirements of the industry,” says Glenn Ensor, Events Director at PennWell. “A survey conducted last year found that a separate hydropower focus would be of particular interest to Russia Power participants and we look forward to satisfying this interest.”
“A separate focus on hydropower and associated civil structures is particularly relevant for Russia,” notes Marla Barnes, Conference Director for the hydropower segment. “Hydro accounts for 20 per cent of Russia’s power generation capacity and Russia is one of the world’s top hydropower producers, with a significant potential for further development.”
Russia Power will showcase exhibitors who offer a wide range of hydro- and dams-related products and services with a special Hydropower Pavilion on the exhibit floor.
NP Hydropower, Russia’s only professional association for hydropower, is an official partner of this new focus at Russia Power 2010.
The eighth annual Russia Power Conference and Exhibition is organized by PennWell Corporation and will be held in Moscow’s Expocentr on March 24-26, 2010.
