    Recently, the College of Construction Engineering at Jilin University invited Professor Lü Xiaoshu, from the Department of Energy Engineering at the University of Vaasa, Finland, and a part-time professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Aalto University, Finland, as well as a Tang Aoqing Chair Professor at Jilin University, to conduct an academic exchange.

    

    Professor Lü Xiaoshu has long been engaged in research on low-energy consumption and low-carbon technologies in building environments. She has achieved significant research results in the optimization of coordinated renewable energy, very high-energy systems, energy storage technologies, waste heat utilization, as well as artificial intelligence and optimization strategies in the field of building energy.

    

    On August 2, Professor Lü delivered a brilliant academic lecture to the faculty and students of the College titled "Optimization and Coordination of Multiple Energy Sources for Low-Carbon Buildings." In her lecture, Professor Lü analyzed the necessity of low-carbon buildings, introduced successful global case studies, particularly in Nordic countries, and detailed EU-funded projects on low-carbon buildings and energy system optimization. The lecture further explored the latest research trends and technological advancements in the energy sector, opening a new window for academic exploration for the audience. The session was highly interactive, with Professor Lü providing detailed answers to questions from faculty and students and offering constructive suggestions. The lecture, rich in content and high in professionalism, was an important step in enhancing the college’s talent training, expanding academic horizons, fostering a professional learning atmosphere, and improving the international exchange capabilities of both faculty and students.

    

    To further deepen collaboration, on August 9, Professor Lü gave a special report titled "Leading the Future: From Energy Generation to Consumption" and held a discussion session with the faculty and students of the College. The purpose of the session was to delve into frontier issues in the energy field and provide a valuable opportunity for the College’s faculty and students to engage in face-to-face exchanges with an internationally renowned scholar. Professor Lü provided a comprehensive analysis of the various stages of energy generation, conversion, storage, and consumption, highlighting the critical role of energy technology in driving global sustainable development. During the interactive session, faculty and students actively raised questions, contributing to a lively atmosphere. This exchange not only broadened the academic horizons of the participants but also laid a solid foundation for future international cooperation and academic exchanges, injecting new momentum into the College’s scientific research and innovation efforts.

    

    This academic exchange activity not only enhanced the College’s talent cultivation but also strengthened the international exchange capabilities of the faculty and students. The College of Construction Engineering will take this opportunity to continue deepening its cooperation with the international academic community, promoting scientific research innovation, and contributing knowledge and power to global energy transformation and sustainable development. Furthermore, the College aims to establish closer ties with the University of Vaasa, jointly explore more opportunities for collaboration, and promote the flourishing development of academic endeavours on both sides.
