在新能源发电、电能替代与低碳减排加速推进的背景下,全球能源体系正经历深刻变革。中国提出“2030碳达峰、2060碳中和”战略目标,并加快建设以新能源为主体的新型电力系统。这为新一代能源创新人才深入了解全球最先进能源基础设施之一提供了独特机遇。
为服务国家“双碳”战略,提升电力能源学科国际影响力,清华大学电机工程与应用电子技术系于2024年创办未来电力与能源(FPES)国际暑期学校,打造集前沿学术引领、产业实践对接与国际人才汇聚于一体的高端国际交流平台,为来自世界顶尖高校的本科生和研究生提供沉浸式学习体验,使其深入了解现代电力系统的发展与实践。
Amid the rapid growth of renewable energy, electrification, and low-carbon strategies, the global energy landscape is undergoing a profound transformation. China, with its ambitious goals of carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, is rapidly building a new-type power system dominated by renewable energy. This creates a unique opportunity for the next generation of energy innovators to gain practical insight into one of the world’s most advanced energy infrastructures.
To support China’s “dual carbon”strategy and enhance the international influence of power and energy disciplines, the Department of Electrical Engineering and Applied Electronics at Tsinghua University launched the Future Power and Energy Systems (FPES) International Summer School in 2024. FPES is a high-end international platform that integrates academic excellence, industrial practice, and global talent exchange, offering undergraduate and graduate students from top universities worldwide an immersive experience in modern power systems.
Explore the World’s Largest Power System
The 2026 FPES Summer School will be held at Tsinghua University, Beijing, offering a two-week immersive program designed for future energy leaders. Participants will:
Explore cutting-edge technologies shaping the future of global power systems
Learn from leading scholars and industry experts
Experience China’s rapidly evolving energy landscape firsthand
Location: Tsinghua University, Beijing, China
Program Duration: August 9–23, 2026.

Why FPES?
FPES provides a unique international platform for students to engage with frontier topics and real-world energy applications.
Key focus areas (all courses in English):
Carbon-neutral power systems
Digital twin power grids AI-driven energy innovation
Renewable energy integration
Power electronics in modern grids
Advanced DC transmission and distribution.


Learning model: Combining expert lectures, laboratory visits, industry engagement, collaborative workshops, and intercultural exchange, FPES bridges cutting-edge research with practical energy applications.
A Global Program with Growing Impact
Since its launch, FPES has quickly gained international recognition.
2024–2025 cohorts attracted applicants from over 25 countries
Participants represented five continents
Participant Satisfaction: 9.3 / 10
Net Promoter Score (NPS): 73.9
These results highlight the program’s strong academic quality and global reputation.
Notably, the program is also beginning to serve as a pathway from short-term academic exchange to advanced research training. One participant from a previous cohort has already continued on to pursue a Ph.D. at Tsinghua University.
Building on this success, the 2026 FPES Summer School will further expand its international faculty and collaborative learning opportunities.
Program Highlights
Participants will gain first-hand insights into the future of global power systems through:
Lectures by internationally renowned scholars
Laboratory visits at Tsinghua University
Technical visits to renewable energy and energy storage facilities
Industry interaction with experts from the State Grid Corporation of China
Thematic workshops and roundtable discussions on emerging energy challenges
Collaborative discussions with peers from around the world
Beyond academics, the program also offers cultural activities and Chinese culture immersion, allowing participants to explore Beijing and its rich heritage.
