EVOSST Energy Index
An integrated energy index for household electricity-consumption behaviour
Project overview
EVOSST Energy Index develops and validates an integrated measure of household electricity-consumption behaviour. The project combines multiple assessment criteria to classify consumers and support practical recommendations for more efficient electricity use, with experimental validation in a laboratory prototype.
