In the DE-RISK project, we’re not just exploring why people choose sustainable technologies but also finding ways to make them easier to adopt. Our research shows that simplicity, empowerment, and accessibility are key. It’s about making the transition to renewable energy or smart devices feel effortless and natural. ⚡💡 What is our approach? Creating dashboards that make it easier for people to engage with their energy use: real-time insights 📊, clear goals 🎯, and personalized tips 💬 that help people make the most out of sustainable tech. When people have the tools to track and understand their energy impact, they’re more likely to stay involved and see the benefits. 🌱 Check out our top strategies to make sustainable tech a seamless part of daily life!
