BEHAVE 2020-2021 – 6th European Conference on Behaviour and Energy Efficiency

BEHAVE 2020-2021 is the 6th version of the biannual EnR event that focuses on the application of behavioural insights in energy efficiency. As an important conference for national energy agencies in Europe, BEHAVE provides a unique forum for policymakers, academia, industry and practitioners to share ideas and experiences in promoting effective solutions for energy efficiency improvements and climate mitigation.

How to participate

The portal for on-line registration and paper and proposal submission will be open from 10 February 2020. More information about the event, including a detailed programme, scientific committee members, and keynote speakers will be published and regularly updated. For more information, please visit enr-network.org and c2e2.unepdtu.org.

BEHAVE 2020-2021 will include plenary sessions and parallel sessions. The conference will produce two publications:

- Conference proceedings will consist of accepted abstracts and be released during the conference;

- A special issue in the journal Energy Policy, which will consist of invited papers based on screening of the accepted abstracts.

The BEHAVE 2018 held in Zurich received 200 abstracts and attracted 330 participants. BEHAVE 2020-2021 is expected to make another record high in participants and another three days of exciting discussions and networking..

Compared with previous years, the upcoming BEHAVE 2020-2021 will have more coverage on developing countries, more significant presence of participants outside Europe, the private sector as well as experience sharing from international development agencies and the United Nations on integrating behavioural economics in international development assistance projects to developing countries. Given the latest scientific and policy developments, BEHAVE 2020-2021 is also expected to contribute to the transition to a climate-neutral future.
