Hard-to-Reach Energy Users

Project: Commissioned research

Project Details

Description

The ‘Hard-to-Reach’ (HTR) project will generate knowledge, approaches and policy recommendations aiming to identify HTR energy users and effectively engage them in energy efficiency programmes. The research will support the development of robust social science-based guidance for designing and implementing programmes and interventions that are more tailored to specific HTR actors. The project is part of the ‘User-Centred Energy Systems Technology Collaboration Programme’ by the International Energy Agency (IEA). The IIIEE will represent Sweden and provide expertise on behavioural economics and policy analysis.
