There is tremendous urgency for reducing cities’ energy footprint through behavioural change. However, we hardly know how to enable individuals to learn to use energy responsibly in their daily lives.

The CODALoop project combines information, cognitive and social sciences into a real-life experiment in urban neighborhoods.

CODALoop provides:

  1. a deeper understanding of learning and behavioral change to reduce energy consumption in an urban setting;
  2. a tested prototype of an interactive web-based platform for sharing data about individual and community energy consumption choices;
  3. a tailored set of policy and market recommendations for the wider application of this platform.
