The Head of Department of Electrical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Professor Tam Hwa-yaw, and the Managing Director of HK Electric, Mr. Wan Chi-tin, signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” (MOU) on November 30, 2018, which provides a framework for both sides to fully utilize their expertise in power engineering by applying it in teaching and research with the aim to groom more engineering talents in Hong Kong.
This MOU is the continuation of the first MOU signed 3 years ago. The previous co-operation is proven to be a successful and fruitful one and we start to further strengthen cooperation between the two parties in the areas of research and development. One significant milestone in this MOU will be the formation of a Smart Grid Open Laboratory which is expected to be open in next April 2019.
The Department is grateful for HK Electric Institute’s strong partnership in providing industrial training and experience to equip our students in preparing for their professional career in the power engineering industry.
