Three electrical engineering students placed second in the 2024 Borneo Physics Fair international essay competition. The competition was part of a series of events held at the fourth annual International Webinar on Physics and Students Networking in October.
Brandon Ng, Andrew Nguyen and Logan Tom submitted an essay about their senior project with Taufik, in which they are developing a residential electrical system called the Hybrid AC/DC House. Taufik and several electrical engineering students are currently constructing a prototype of the hybrid house at Cal Poly, which Taufik envisions as a catalyst for the future development of Net Zero Energy Home.
Students from many universities participated in the essay competition, which focused on the theme of sustainability.
Taufik was also featured as a keynote speaker at the conference.
