Energy waste in buildings due to occupant behaviour

Occupants’ behaviour has a significant impact on the energy performance of buildings. A good understanding of how occupants use a building provides a possibility of promoting the building’s energy efficiency through changing occupant behaviour. Building simulation has been adopted as a useful method...
