What is Task 24?
Task 24 – Objective in a tweet (or two)
The overarching impact of this Task is to provide a helicopter overview of best practice approaches to behaviour change interventions and practical, tailored guidelines and tools of how to best design, implement, evaluate and disseminate them in real life.
IEA DSM Task 24Phase I
Closing the Loop – Behaviour Change in DSM: From Theory to Practice
Some numbers of Task 24 – Phase I
• July 2012 – April 2015• 8 participating countries• 9 in-kind countries• >235 behaviour change and DSM experts from 21
countries• 20 successful expert workshops• >145 videos and presentations• Over 45 publications – reports, papers, articles…• Almost 60 case studies from 16 countries in a Wiki• www.ieadsm.org/task/task-24-phase-1/

The Story of Task 24

Subtask 1 - Definitions of Task 24
http://www.slideshare.net/drsea/definitions-for-task-24
What is behaviour (in Task 24)?
Energy behaviour refers to all human actions that affect the way that fuels (electricity, gas, petroleum, coal, etc) are used to achieve desired services, including the acquisition or disposal of energy-related technologies and materials, the ways in which these are used, and the mental processes that relate to these actions.
Behaviour Change in the context of this Task thus refers to any changes in said human actions which were directly or indirectly influenced by a variety of interventions (e.g. legislation, regulation, incentives, subsidies, information campaigns, peer pressure etc.) aimed at fulfilling specific behaviour change outcomes. These outcomes can include any changes in energy efficiency, total energy consumption, energy technology uptake or demand management but should be identified and specified by the Behaviour Changer designing the intervention for the purpose of outcome evaluation.

What is storytelling?
‘Storytelling’ is the construction of a desirable future based on a narrative of past events, with a plot that expresses
some causal relationship To read more: Rotmann et al (2015). Once Upon a
Time… How to tell an energy efficiency story that ‘sticks’. ECEEE Summer study proceedings
And ERSS Special Edition on Storytelling & Narratives
For more information, visit www.ieadsm.org
Stories are:
• Universal• Help us process information• Providing multiple perspectives• Subjective, not one truth• Aid recall• Shape identity• Make connections
For more information, visit www.ieadsm.org
The art and scientific methodology of storytelling
Narratives = social science tool aimed at providing way to explore how big events (policies) impact on small scale (individuals)
Allow for quick, practical and useful understanding of complexity of interconnected factors in behaviour research
We all turn everything into a narrative in order to remember it
We’re all expert story tellers

So… what’s the moral of the story of Task 24?
• There is no silver bullet anywhere but the potential remains huge• Homo economicus doesn’t exist (in energy humans)• Habits are the most difficult thing to break, though it’s easiest
during moments of change• There is no such thing as individual energy use• We need to look at whole-system, societal change• This can’t be done in isolation by one sector - collaboration is key• Everyone has a piece of the puzzle but we can’t see the whole
picture yet• We need a shared learning and collaboration platform that works• We also need a shared language based on narratives
è It’s all about the people!

Task 24 Phase IIThe Energy System
How does it look like now?
The way we currently look at the Energy System
Page 5
We pose that a better understanding of the human aspect of energy use, including behavioural and societal drivers and barriers and external and internal contexts, will greatly improve the uptake of energy efficiency and DSM policies and programmes. This is not at all to say that technology, market and business models and energy supply are not hugely important aspects of the Energy System. Instead, we pose that the Energy System begins and ends with the human need for the services derived from energy (warmth, comfort, entertainment, mobility, hygiene, safety etc) and that behavioural interventions using technology, market and business models and changes to supply and delivery of energy are the all-important means to that end. Below we will elaborate on a different ‘model of understanding’ (based on work from Task 24 to date) of the energy system and its actors that offers a pragmatic approach for how we propose to further improve the co-creation of knowledge, learning, sharing and translation into practice among practitioners in the energy field. The way the Energy System is currently established (see Figure 1), does not easily permit such a whole-system view which puts human needs, behaviours and (ir)rationalities at the center of interventions geared at system change. Instead, if we look at the Energy System through the human lens (Figure 2), we can see that it isn’t necessarily this top-down/left-right linear realtionship starting with supply and ending with the end user, but rather a circular relationship which actually starts with the end user need for an energy service (click here for a short video presentation explaining this in more detail).

Collective impact = the commitment of a group of important actors from different sectors to a common agenda for solving a specific social problem.

Task 24 Phase IISubtask 6 – Understanding the Behaviour Changers’ Practices and Priorities “The Issues”
Deciding on the issues to focus on for Canada
What are the Top DSM Issues here?
Top DSM Issues: • Is there a national list of DSM issues?• What are the biggest behavioural potentials?• What DSM policies and programmes are already tackling these issues and how?• What are their approximate contribution to the country’s load management (economic, technical,
political and societal potentials)?• What are the risks and multiple benefits of each?
What are the potentials, risks and (multiple) benefits for the Top DSM Issues?

What behaviour are we actually trying to change?
Home owners: Share PV with your neighbourhood (NZ)Commercial building tenants and landlords: co-develop green leases that work (SE)Restaurant owners/SMEs: close doors, turn off burners, lights etc (Fort Collins)Building Management Operators in Hospitals: how to better document and communicate EE (CA)Energy companies: Go all the way with energy efficiency regulations, not just the easy route (AT)ICT in Universities: What are the low-hanging fruit? How can we deliver big savings easily? (NL)Residential retrofits: Training Middle Actors in communities (IE)
