@techreport { , title = {Heating controls: International evidence base and policy experiences}, abstract = {This report presents a synthesis in the form of narrative summaries of the international evidence base and policy experiences on heating controls in the domestic sector. The research builds on the former Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) commissioned (systematic) scoping review of the UK evidence on heating controls published in 2016 (Lomas et al., 2016), and the Rapid Evidence Assessment of smarter heating controls published in 2014 (Munton et al., 2014). The report consists of two parts. Part 1 involves a (systematic) scoping review of the international evidence base on the energy savings, cost-effectiveness and usability of heating controls in the domestic sector. Part 2 contains the findings from an analysis of the policy experiences of other countries.}, publicationstatus = {Published}, url = {https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/879870}, keyword = {Centre for Architecture and Built Environment Research, carbon emissions, energy saving, energy policy, heating controls, usability}, year = {2017}, author = {Oliveira, Sonja and Prestwood, Emily and Chatterton, Tim and Poghosyan, Anush and Gething, Bill} }
