| description | This thesis explores household energy consumption under the light of social and psychological theories to understand the impact of renewable energy systems on household energy demand. The Home System of Practice describes the interrelationships within the household between the occupants and identifies a state of equilibrium when it comes to living. This state intertwines each individual system of practice to achieve a routinised lifestyle within the home. This understanding was built-on in this thesis and expanded to explore occupants’ relationship with residential energy systems. |
