The First Community-based Sustainable Energy: Combining wireless systems, smart micro-generation and education (ComSE) Workshop will be hosted at UFSC Smart Solar Building, in February 15-19, 2016. The workshop will bring together specialists, to discuss the issues and potential solutions of micro-grids, from three domains: wireless sensing and embedded computing; renewable energy; and social scientists. The aims of the workshop are to (1) inform the development of wireless devices and tools to support integrated community-based microgrids and microgeneration control; (2) map the current gaps in education and technology that make them inaccessible or difficult to apply.
