Introduction
Millions of buildings must become more sustainable to reach the climate goals. The speed of this energy transition depends on the people - owners, residents, managers - who have to invest their time, money and effort.
This lecture is about the behaviour-based digital tools and games that Department of Built Environment at TU/e ​​creates to support the social side of energy transition. The lecture will discuss projects that have been done in collaboration with municipalities, housing corporations, energy collectives and other partners. This with financial support from RVO, NWO, among others. For more information, see https://www.bel-tue.online/
