On May 19, Dr. Liuchen Chang, professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering of University of New Brunswick, fellow of Canadian Academy of Engineering, visited AHUT. President Li Jiaxin met with Dr. Chang and had a discussion with him on the students’ education and cooperative research in the field of electrical engineering.

During his stay at AHUT, Dr. Chang gave a lecture entitled Creating Power System Resources from Distributed Energy. In his lecture, he shared his insightful ideas on an alternative and dispatchable resource created from distributed energy resources for power systems with faculty members and graduate students from the School of Electrical and Information Engineering, AHUT. Dr. Liu Xiaodong, the Dean of the School, hosted the lecture.            （Written by Liu Sucheng; Translated by Yu Lu; Edited by Sheng Laping）
