  • Addressing non-technological barriers;
  • Supporting research actions to better understand consumer’s decision making and to quantify the positive impacts of energy efficiency;
  • Demonstrating that ICT-based solutions can contribute to saving energy by supporting behavioural change in energy end-users;
  • Engaging with public authorities and increasing their capacity to develop and implement ambitious sustainable energy policies and plans.
