Many close industryacademy cooperation projects on renewable energy are under implementation. The windsolar power generation converter developed by Professor ZhiLong Shen in recent days uses the complementary characteristics of wind power and solar energy to supply power. The T5 electronic Ballast for fluorescent lamps uses a softstart device to extend the service life of a lamp by 2 to 3 times. These innovations make a contribution to the development of renewable energy.

XianZhang Zhang hoped that different voices from industry, government, and academic circles could bring about innovative thoughts for power transmission, transformation projects in the future, and improve the service effectiveness of Taipower.
