Profiles
• Specifying household profiles for more efficient energy demand-side management. 2004-2006. Belspo. With CRIOC and ICEDD.
• Surveys: quantitative and qualitative• Some results:
• Gaps between attitudes and behaviours• Diversity of interests to conserve energy.• Identification of constraints (NB. Constraints both enable and
disable). • Importance of other actors (a.o. architects, technicians, …)
