The UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放) by 80 percent by 2050, -carbon by 2016. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own—though extremely important—is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using the building has to change, le use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency(效率), to do everything,” explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher, “consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design.” In other words, old habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home.ion. Households and bill-payers don't have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits. Without specific information, (反馈) facilities, ergy monitors, could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters. |
