• Renewable energy systems
• Smart grid and utility applications
• Energy efficiency, power quality and electromagnetic compatibility
• Education and special topics

Prospective authors are requested to submit a digest no longer than five pages, single column, double spaced, font size 12, summarising the proposed paper. The digest should include key equations, figures, tables and references as appropriate, but no author names or affiliations. The digests must clearly state the objectives of the work, its significance in advancing engineering or science, and the methods and specific results in sufficient detail. Papers presented at COBEP/SPEC must be original material and not have been previously presented or published. Reviewers value evidence of completed experimental work. Authors should obtain any necessary company and governmental clearance prior to submission of digests.

Contributing authors may submit digest written in English, following all details on digest and final manuscript format available online at www.cobepspec2015.ufc.br.

If a digest is accepted, authors must submit a final manuscript before the deadline or the manuscript cannot be published in the proceedings or presented at the conference. Final manuscripts may be subject to charges if their papers are over the page or file-size limit. At least one of the authors listed on a paper must be registered for either a Full Registration or for the Technical Sessions Only registration, per paper.
