Behavioural energy efficiency is an innovative DSM approach, crucial to unlocking incremental energy savings in a sustained manner. Such intervention is based on the scientific application of a mix of data analytics and behavioural science to not only help consumers understand their energy usage better, but also empower them to take steps to adopt more efficient behaviours. The whitepaper co-authored by AEEE and Oracle Utilities (erstwhile Opower):

– Evaluates the potential impact of Home Energy Report-based behavioural energy efficiency in India
– Illustrates the mechanics of a behavioural energy efficiency program
– Presents relevant case-study of HER-based behavioural energy efficiency project
– Explains the need for conducive ecosystem

Behavioral Energy Efficiency Potential for India
