One year later, the Sungrow team revisited the campus to assess how the system has been utilized and its contribution to the university’s educational goals. Faculty and students shared that this university-enterprise collaboration has helped them better understand theoretical knowledge and significantly enhanced their practical skills. Professor Chu Văn Tuấn from EPU’s Center for Media and Corporate Communication, remarked, "Sungrow’s solar PV system has allowed students to extend their theoretical knowledge into hands-on practice, greatly enriching our teaching content and improving students’ practical abilities."
Joint Educational Program: Integrating Industry Expertise, Promoting Innovation and Practice
During the visit, the Sungrow and Inpos Vietnam teams conducted an educational session on inverter technology and its commercial and industrial applications for EPU students. The lecture provided in-depth insights into Sungrow’s technological innovations and practical case studies, bridging the gap between academic learning and industry practice. The program also featured interactive Q&A sessions, using online games to increase student engagement and participation. Outstanding students received Sungrow-branded memorabilia, which further motivated their enthusiasm for the learning experience.
Sungrow’s partnership with EPU reflects the company’s ongoing dedication to supporting education and driving innovation in the solar energy sector.
