Conclusion
In spite of the technological advancement on building design and construction, actual energy use levels of dwellings are different than expected in several cases. Little is known about how occupants interact with their dwellings, what the background to this interaction is, as well as the resulting energy use. This research aimed at revealing the relationship between occupant behavior and energy consumption, both in terms of heating energy and ele…
Behavioral patterns and profiles of electricity consumption in dutch dwellings
Having investigated the determinants of electricity consumption in relation to household and dwelling characteristics, Chapter 6 provides a closer look at the behavioral patterns of household appliance use and electricity consumption. The OTB sample was used to conduct correlation and factor analysis. This Chapter deals with the Research Question III-2 of this thesis: (Chapter 1, Section 3, pg. 16-17) “ III. What are the behavioral patterns and p…
Effects of occupant behavior on the energy performance of dwellings
Chapter 3 is a sensitivity analysis conducted using the actual heating behavior data of occupants in the OTB sample. The aim was to model heating behavior and heating energy consumption using Markov chains and Monte Carlo methods. Secondly we wanted to evaluate the robustness of energy consumption of a dwelling to heating behaviors such as thermostat, radiator and ventilation control, as well as presence. The results of this Chapter were compared…
Analysis of thermostat control in dutch dwellings
In the previous Chapter we made a sensitivity analysis based on actual energy consumption and heating behavior, on the whole OTB sample using methods like Markov chain and Monte Carlo analysis. In this Chapter (Chapter 5) a deeper analysis of heating behavioral patterns is reported. The study included 61 houses randomly chosen from the Netherlands, monitored for 2 months during March and April 2011. The thermostat use patterns of households were …
Existing Knowledge About Occupant Behavior and Energy Consumption
Chapter 2 provides an overview of a literature study of the existing knowledge on energy consumption from the urban to the user scale, energy performance modelling methods, the energy performance gap, and insights to determinants of heating energy and electricity consumption. This review first helped to set up a reference point for the reasons to actual occupant behavior, how perception, lifestyle, norms, rules lead to various actions at home (Fi…
Behavioral determinants of electricity consumption in dutch dwellings
Following the sensitivity analysis on heating energy consumption in Chapter 3, Chapter 4 is an analysis on the determinants of electricity consumptions in Dutch dwellings. The OTB sample was used for analysis, and it was validated with analysis of the WoON sample. The work was published as: This Chapter deals with the Research Question II of this thesis: (Chapter 1, Section 3, pg. 16-17) “II. What is the influence of lighting and appliance use on…
Occupant behavior and energy consumption in dwellings
Much is known about the increasing levels of energy consumption and environmental decay caused by the built environment. Also, more and more attention is shown to the energy consumption of dwellings, from the early design stage until the occupants start living in them. The increasing complexity of building technologies, the occupants’ preferences, and their needs and demands make it difficult to achieve the aimed energy consumption levels. The go…

The eruption of the volcano in Iceland has proven once again that while we have increasing control over the environment, we are becoming more dependent and painfully aware that we are at its mercy.In fact, we have been making major efforts to address this issue for almost four decades, ever since sustainability was introduced as an environmental concept.Researchers have been constructing the context for urgent action.Meanwhile, activists have bee…
