| Project Description | InBetween project aimed to create more energy efficient lifestyles towards a global process that foreseen assisting Users to IDENTIFY energy wastes, LEARN how they can conserve energy and MOTIVATE them to act. A user-centric approach was applied throughout the project including aspects from the ‘theory of social practice’ .Apart from detecting energy saving opportunities and offering various incentives for users’ behaviour change, a significant part of the motivation aspect was also associated with the provided ability and means to act through the InBetween solution. InBetween aimed to a deliver cost-effective solution that brought added value, without significant disruption of everyday activities, through the collaborative InBetween cloud based platform offering advanced energy services. It allowed users to integrate their building’s connected devices and systems with advanced energy analytics and optimisation services to create a comprehensive recommendation and feed-back solution which facilitated further the behaviour change towards more energy and cost efficient daily routines. A significant demonstration activity in a range of real life pilot locations in the EU with diverse public set-ups, which differ in terms of size, type, climate and patterns of use, offered the necessary technological validation. |
