Module 1: Households
Private households account for a large part of the overall energy consumption. Against this backdrop, NRP 71 places an emphasis on the analysis of individual and collective behaviour in households with regard to energy consumption. Research targets include determining which factors influence the energy needs of households (lighting, heating, refrigeration and mobility) in the short, medium and long term, and which of these factors can be utilised for energy management purposes.
