This Pecha Kucha presentation was given by Dr Sea Rotmann at the National Energy Research Institute conference in Wellington, NZ on February 14, 2013. It takes a rather tongue-in-cheek stab at answering the age-old question why energy efficiency, with all its many benefits, remains the unsexy cousin of technology and supply side interventions
This was the presentation to experts attending our task's first webinar in April 2012. Their feedback fed into the reworking of the draft workplan, which was presented and accepted at the ExCo meeting in May 2012.
This is a short overview of various models of understanding behaviour and theories of change, which will be analysed in depth using case studies from the countries participating in IEA DSM Task 24 (www.ieadsm.org). The presentation was given at the NZ workshop for Task 24 on February 15, 2013 in Wellington.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

What is DSM?
Subtasks of DSM? XXIV
• Demand Side Management (DSM) generally refers to changes that originate from the demand (energy
user) side.
• Reduce the total demand for energy (conservation), whilst providing the same service (energy
efficiency) and shift demand from peak periods to off-peak periods (load-management).

5. what is DSM in Task 24?
Interventions (top-down and bottom-up policies,
programmes and actions) developed and performed by
intermediaries (government agencies, utilities, DSM
implementers) that seek to influence the ways end users
consume energy at home, at their workplace or whilst
travelling. The changes sought by intermediaries may include
the quantity of energy consumed for a given service,
patterns of energy consumption or the supply
management and type of energy consumed.
The intended outcomes of demand side management will differ with
the aspirations of intermediaries but include energy efficiency,
energy conservation, sufficiency, reduced greenhouse gas
emissions or (peak) load management.
6. whySubtasks of Task XXIV
behaviourChange?
What Behaviour change?
• It is estimated that up to 30% of energy demand is locked in the so-called ‘behavioural wedge’.
This ‘wedge’ includes peoples’ habitual behaviours and peoples’ investment and purchasing
behaviours
Household actions can provide a behavioral wedge to rapidly reduce US carbon
emissions (Dietz, Gardner, Gilligan, Stern and Vandenbergh), 2009

7. what isisenergy-using behaviour ?
Subtasks of Task XXIV
What Energy-Using Behaviour?
• Energy-using behaviour refers to all human
actions that relate to the use of externally
acquired energy. It includes the non-
individual process of acquiring energy-
related technologies and materials and
functions, their maintenance; and
consumption of energy as a system that is
translated in practice.
WHAT WE DO and WHAT WE DO IT WITH
7
8. an important caveat
An important caveat
In this Task, a successful behaviour change outcome results in
improved energy use by households and businesses. This does not
necessarily focus solely on an immediate reduction in total energy
use, but on the most efficient and environmentally friendly use of
energy to derive the services that underpin societal and economic
wellbeing.
8
9. premise of Task 24
That the current energy efficiency gap results from:
Homo sapiens sapiens ≠ Homo economicus
overly technocratic approaches
the limited transfer of best practice and good research
to the policy domain
the lack of meaningful monitoring and evaluation tools

1. The International Energy Agency as umbrella - mutual influence 2. Consciously taking a very ‘human’ approach to address this (human) problem 3. Creative solutions to visualise and simplify this complex issue: storytelling, infographics, graphic representations of workshops, Pecha Kuchas, videos, social media etc 4. Bridging divides - between research disciplines, experts from various sectors, countries 5. Embracing bottom-up and open approaches: open innovation, participatory learning, action research, community engagement 6. Strong emphasis on evaluation that makes sense - what is a successful behaviour change outcome to you? 7. A future vision to turn the theory into practice with a Task extension to 2017 - this will enable cross-cultural/country comparisons of how the recommended approach/es fare in different contexts
There are many different behaviour change disciplines, models and frameworks, which often operate in silos . As a first step in the challenge of moving towards an interdisciplinary model of better understanding behaviour change, we will present an inventory of what the diverse (sub)disciplines have to offer both theoretically and empirically. Case studies will be provided by experts to outline (un)successful uses of the various models etc, what contexts have been examined, and how they have been evaluated . This will help understanding the benefits and limitations of applying different models to different contexts. Ultimately, we hope to provide participating countries with the ability to select relevant models that inform DSM initiatives focusing on particular topics of interest: e.g. smart metering, SMEs, renovation programmes and transport (detailed analysis in Subtask II) Next steps : Workshop on Subtask I in Brussels, September 7 and Subtasks I and II in Oxford, October 9-10
