Project Description

The project intends to segment national energy consumers drawing upon European best practice. The project will validate the most effective behavioural models to encourage action across the segments to accelerate the uptake of renewable energy practices in Ireland. The methodology primarily employs social marketing tools to achieve specific behavioural goals. The results will provide useful insights for SEAI communications, delivery of grant programmes and inform behavioural interventions which will be examined in more detail by the Behavioural Economics Unit in SEAI.
