The timing and societal synchronisation of energy demand

摘要: It is increasingly important to know about when energy used in the home, at work and on move. Issues of time timing have not featured strongly policy analysis modelling, much which has focused estimating reducing total average annual demand per capita. If smarter ways balancing supply are take hold, if we make better use decarbonised forms supply, it essential understand intervene patterns societal synchronisation. This calls for detailed knowledge when, what occasions many people engage same activities time, how such changing, might they be shaped. In addition, impact smart meters controls partly depends whether there is, fact scope shifting do, changing rhythm day. Is scheduling daily life an arena that can influence, so how? The DEMAND Centre been linking use, consumption travel diary data as a means addressing these questions this working paper present some issues results arising from exercise.
