On June 18, 2026, faculty members and students of the Department of Automation of Electrotechnical and Mechatronic Complexes (AEMC) participated in a technical seminar organized by Schneider Electric and dedicated to modern electrical engineering solutions and the manufacturer’s latest equipment.

The event took place at the Schneider Electric Innovation Hub in Kyiv and brought together representatives of industry, design organizations, higher education institutions, and professionals from the electrical engineering sector.

Throughout the day, participants became acquainted with Schneider Electric’s latest developments in the fields of automation, power supply systems, and the digitalization of energy infrastructure. Particular interest was generated by presentations focused on power quality monitoring solutions, the modern ETAP software package for power system design, large-scale energy storage systems, Microgrid technologies, and digital substation concepts.

Participants also had the opportunity to explore the company’s educational and demonstration stands, modern industrial automation equipment, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), variable frequency drives (VFDs), and solutions for developing intelligent process control systems.

An important part of the seminar was the discussion of future prospects for the energy sector in the context of digital transformation, improved energy efficiency, and the integration of renewable energy sources. The information presented is particularly relevant to the educational and research activities of the department, as many of the showcased solutions align with current trends in the development of electromechanical and energy systems.

Participation in the seminar contributed to enhancing the professional awareness of both students and faculty members regarding modern technologies and equipment. It also provided an excellent opportunity to establish new professional contacts, exchange experience with industry representatives, and discuss prospects for further cooperation between the department and Schneider Electric.

The Department of AEMC expresses its gratitude to Schneider Electric for organizing this informative and valuable event, for its openness to cooperation with the academic community, and for its support of engineering education development in Ukraine.
