1. 6. Prediction of power and energy use in dwellings : Addressing apects of thermal mass and occupant behaviour

   Författare :Victor Fransson; Avdelningen för Installations- och klimatiseringslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggnadssimulering; Termisk massa; Värmetröghet; boendes beteende; hushållsel; varmvatten; building simulation; thermal mass; thermal inertia; occupant behaviour; household electricity; domestic hot water;

   Sammanfattning : Households are responsible for approximately 26 % of the annual energy use in the EU. Following the EU-directives regarding energy performance in buildings, international initiatives have been taken in Europe to help countries to define and include guidelines in their own building codes, for example, to establish the concept of zero energy buildings, ZEBs.

3. 7. What have residents got to do with it? : Variations in energy use and energy-related behaviours in single-family houses

   Författare :Carolina Hiller; Jesper Arfvidsson; Thorbjörn Laike; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy use variations; energy-related behaviour; single-family houses; households; residents; multi-disciplinary; field measurements; times-use diaries; energy use over time; load curves; power peaks; energy measurements; residential houses;

   Sammanfattning : To achieve global energy goals, energy use in residential buildings must decrease. The implementation of technical measures is crucial but alone it is not sufficient; residents need to change their behaviour as well. LÄS MER

4. 8. Energy Services in Sweden - Customer Relations towards Increased Sustainability

   Författare :Kerstin Sernhed; Energihushållning; []
   Nyckelord :demand-side management; district heating; electricity; Customer relations; district-heating marketing strategies; load management; feedback;

   Sammanfattning : Energy use and supply are evident issues to consider for a sustainable development, where the economic, social and environmental aspects are all important. In large grid-bound systems, the supply of energy is usually a rather invisible activity and the contacts between household custo-mers and utilities are sometimes only repre-sented through the energy bill.

5. 9. Från el till värme : en diskursanalytisk policystudie av energiomställning på statlig, kommunal och hushållsnivå

   Författare :Karin Perman; Ingemar Elander; Agneta Blom; Charlotte Fridolfsson; Annette Henning; Marianne Ryghaug; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy policy; energy; energy transition; gender; renewable energy; household; discourse; energy conversion; electrical heating; What´s the problem? approach; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; Political science; Statsvetenskap; Political Science; Statskunskap; Från el till värme. En diskursanalytisk policystudie av energiomställning på statlig; kommunal och hushållsnivå.;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to analyse how space heating for single-family houses, and energy system conversion has been constructed and discussed at national, municipal and household levels. Political documents have been studied, and interviews have been carried out with politicians, civil servants and householders in the municipality of Falun. LÄS MER

7. 10. Feedback learning and multiple goal pursuit in an electricity consumption task

   Författare :Mona Guath; Peter Juslin; Ulrike Hahn; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; feedback; multiple goal pursuit; function learning; electricity consumption; optimisation;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim with the thesis was to investigate how learning to pursue two conflicting goals (cost and utility) in an electricity consumption task is affected by different forms of feedback, goal phrasing, and task environment. Applied research investigating the efficiency of outcome feedback on electricity consumption via in-home displays points at modest reductions (2-4%). LÄS MER
