The role of behaviour in the transition to more energy efficient use at home ...
This study investigated domestic energy use behaviours in Portugal and ways of reducing energy use. This is important because current energy use in the developed world is considered to be unsustainable. Intervention strategies could play an important role to reduce energy use. While some previous research has demonstrated that certain intervention strategies did, or did not, produce changes in behaviour, they mostly could not sufficiently explain the underlying and impacting determinants, or how change came about and led to the desired adoption, whether short or long-term, of more energy efficient behaviours.
This study therefore aims to explore how the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours at home could be encouraged. With this the research has the objective to better understand the different determinants of energy use at home, the underlying motivations, barriers and potential intervention strategies. To achieve this the study uses an exploratory and iterative multi-method approach consisting of survey questionnaires, followed by qualitative research through focus groups targeted at energy users at home, and also individual in-depth interviews with energy conservation intervention practitioners.
The findings of this research show that if the rate of adoption of more energy efficient behaviours is to increase, then interventions that are focusing on providing information or financial incentives, are unlikely to work for a large proportion of energy users. Instead, the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours at home is seen to depend on the ability of intervention strategies to challenge existing norms, thus creating new understandings, expectations and utilization of energy services that could manifest in the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours. With this findings also suggest that community-based initiatives might be an adequate means to challenge social norms and to bring about change.
Home Energy Management
This document discusses home energy management and the need for consumers to save energy and money on their bills. It notes that 90% of consumers want to save but lack information and easy controls. Smart meters and smart home technology can help by automating energy use, providing real-time usage data, and enabling remote control capabilities. Studies show feedback on energy use can reduce consumption by 5-15% by making consumers more aware of their habits and the impact of changes.

Designing Smart Energy
The Designing Smart Energy project (DESME) was a major, innovative research project conducted in 2007-2008. The challenging central task in this project was to figure out how to make households use less energy. The aim was to search for new solutions to help households save energy in easy, effortless, and even fun, ways through combined marketing and design expertise.
Supporting Sustainable Living: Aware Homes and Smart Occupants
Awareness of resource consumption in the home is a key part of reducing our ecological footprint, yet lack of appropriate understanding and motivation often deters residents from behaviour change. We report on the design and implementation an in-home system that supports residents in awareness of resource use, facilitates efficient control of house systems, and encourages conservation in daily activities. Initial responses from deployments in two high-profile sustainable homes indicate the potential this holistic approach has in engaging residents in sustainable living. We present the design rationale for our approach, and discuss the challenges and opportunities we have addressed.
Saving energy with smart plugs Jochem Liander
Liander, a grid operator in the Netherlands, conducted a pilot program using smart plugs to measure and reduce energy usage in their offices and households. The smart plugs measured energy usage of connected appliances and allowed for remote switching. In offices, the plugs were installed on computers, monitors, copiers, and lighting. This led to an average 13% energy savings, with potential for more if computers were switched off after hours. In households, consumers saved 3.5% on average but savings varied depending on engagement. The pilot provided insights on improving user interfaces and engagement to achieve greater energy reductions.

Count Us In Webinar
Rising energy costs and welfare cuts continue to put a strain on household budgets, with the worst affected being forced to choose between heating, eating or paying the rent.
Investment in physical improvements to homes have gone some way to helping households save energy. However there is growing recognition that the way people use their homes is a critical determinant of how much energy is actually saved.
But given many households may be under heating their homes, how best can we help residents to safely manage their use? And how can we reach many residents with limited resources?
This webinar will talk you through findings from the Count Us In project, and will cover:
• What works when helping residents change their behaviour
• The national smart meter roll out and how this could help
• How best to deliver effective engagement with limited resources
• The right messages to use with residents
• What help and resources are available to support you
• An opportunity to ask questions and share your experiences

Smart Data for Behavioural Change: Towards Energy Efficient Buildings
“The Semantic Web is not a separate Web but an extension of the current one, in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation.” - this statement of Tim Berners-Lee has gained even more relevance since the start of this century.
The humanity is rapidly developing and persistently experiencing local and global challenges, such as global warming/climate change, dis-balances in demand and supply, among many others. Mastering most (if not all) of them require a behavior change. Behavioral change is difficult to achieve per se, and it is important that technology – as a major enabler - has a positive rather than a negative impact here.
Further, the dramatic growth of data volumes (Big Data, Internet of Things) and the data’s increased power and impact and on the people's daily lives are calling for new types, practices and policies of behavior with data.
These factors made the role of semantic technology even more crucial: in terms of providing a well-defined meaning, and eventually delivering Smart Data for a functional and fair data value chain.
Addressing the behavioural change with Smart Data, I discuss potential ICT solutions investigating the domain of energy efficient buildings. Particularly, our completed OpenFridge experiment will be presented: design and development of the Internet of Things data system with semantic and data analytics enablers for building new services on a top of typical home appliance data — in particular, refrigerators. The system has been evaluated with real life end-user pilots.
In conclusions, I overview our related ongoing work, namely, in the areas of the impact of Big Data on society and related research roadmapping (linking to sociology), personalized energy efficiency data management services in buildings (linking to psychology), and semantic data licensing (linking to law).

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
