Our key findings will remain available at creds.ac.uk/creds-research…

Exacly one year ago, I published my blog on #climatechange and #hope . And I still believe the things I had written then:
1. We have the means to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
2. We can build a better world.
3. We all have power.

Publishers, data managers, research centre managers, funders and researchers recently attended an expert workshop on #DataManagement in the #EnergyResearch community. This blog highlights their headline recommendations: creds.ac.uk/improving-data… #EnergyDemand

CREDS researchers attended the 7th edition of the #BEHAVE23Conference , an event which applies behavioural insights to energy efficiency & climate mitigation. In their blog, they share the top 4 things they learned: creds.ac.uk/four-things-we… #EnergyDemand #BehaveConference

#EnergyPolicy typically focuses on logical reasoning, whereas our homes are places where emotional reasoning prevails. Yekatherina Bobrova argues that a combination of both are required to create behaviour change: creds.ac.uk/the-place-of-e… #FutureHomes #Retrofit #EnergyDemand

What impact has the #CostOfLivingCrisis had on how we #HeatOurHomes ? Janine Morley notes that #GasBoilers saw reduced usage last year for a surprising number of households, while body-centric heating modes increased: creds.ac.uk/how-central-is… #EnergyDemand #CentralHeating

The non-CO2 impacts of #airtravel are complex to quantify & measure. However, as the total effect of #aviation is much bigger than CO2 emissions alone, Sally Cairns argues that the lack of direct policy action on the full impacts is wrong: creds.ac.uk/aviations-non-… #EnergyDemand

The findings of our major six-wave survey - investigating changes to #TravelBehaviour as a result of the #Pandemic - are summed up here, including key trends in home working, car ownership and staycations: creds.ac.uk/covid-19-trans…
