Step by Step Commitments for Energy Saving

Step by Step Commitments for Energy Saving

Client/Allowance

European Commission (Horizon 2020)

Period: 01.03.2015 – 28.02.2018

The overall aim of the research project STEP_BY_STEP is to investigate behavioral responses to different energy conservation campaigns at the household level in four different European countries (Spain, Italy, Belgium, and Poland) in a field experimental setting. Communication strategies involve door-to-door contacts by energy advisors and regular feedback through mail or by phone over a 20 month period. Empirical methods of program evaluation will be applied to assess the effectiveness of different behavioral interventions on household energy saving patters and to evaluate their economic and ecological impact.
