The need and desire to promote energy awareness within households is steadily growing, and with this many different approaches for visualising energy use beyond the usual monthly bill, many in near real time, have emerged. These approaches are a positive step towards households becoming more environmentally conscious and in control of their energy usage, which is vitally important if greater energy use efficiency is to be achieved. This paper reviews the current state of research in domestic energy use visualisation from four perspectives: personal characteristics influencing and motivating behaviour of individuals; correctly informing the individual; the reality and effectiveness of feedback; and the utility and impact of social effects. An analysis of these four perspectives will further our understanding of how to create successful domestic energy use visualisations. |
