eTEACHER - Design for Behaviour Change for Energy End-Users

Reeves, Andrew; Morton, Ashley; Bull, Richard

Abstract

This short report provides an overview of key concepts related to behaviour change initiatives to save energy in buildings. It draws upon the teaching and research experience of the authors, along with initial findings from a review of literature which commenced in October 2017.
The report highlights key themes for the eTEACHER project to partners as part of Task 1.1, which will be explored further through follow-on workshops and discussion. Ideas will then be further developed via relevant work package tasks (particularly 1.2, 1.3 and 4.1) to then specify how they will be put into practice within eTEACHER (task 1.4).
The report addresses four key issues across four sections:
1. Influences on energy use in buildings
2. Understanding and Changing Behaviour
3. “Enabling Change” – a framework for behaviour change design
4. Links to eTEACHER work packages
