How to stay energy-efficient, healthy and productive in times of lockdown

07/04/2020

People worldwide are spending their days at home. This is a new challenge for everybody, for our health and our job. #HeroAtHome is the new social campaign launched jointly by four EU projects to show how we can be heroes in the comfort of our homes. 

 

Companies all over the world are rolling out mandatory work-from-home policies to tackle the current COVID-19 emergency; and those who are not working remotely, are anyway spending most of their time at home. What's sure is that everybody is new to this lockdown situation and we all have most probably to adapt our habits to the new setting. The current emergency is challenging our mental and physical health, our work productivity and, last but not least, our energy bill. Indeed, spending more time at home means also using more energy than usual.

To help you figure out how to overcome this unprecedented situation, the four European projects MOBISTYLE, Utilitee, TripleA-reno and eTEACHER are launching the social campaign #HeroAtHome.

From ventilating your home to unplugging electronic devices, from paying attention to ergonomics to the need to keep your thermostat down, the four projects will provide helpful and simple tips to help you save energy and stay healthy and productive in the time of coronavirus.

The campaign will pose questions and provide simple tips through real-life pictures, encouraging messages, and graphic animation. Dedicated Twitter @Hero_atHome and Instagram @Hero_At_Home accounts were opened to share our heroes' stories and feel less isolated and more united.

So instead of letting the situation overwhelm you, follow our stories and share your #HeroAtHome side with our community, others could benefit from your advice.

Take part, be a hero.

Take a look at our Dutch demonstration case!

01/11/2019
We all want to be healthier and more productive in our environment right? But how? Recently we started in the office of Huygen with dynamic indoor climate applications to see how such conditions affect people’s well-being, productivity and as well building’s energy performance. 

Furthermore, we developed the MOBISTYLE Office application for the Dutch demonstration case. This application aims to improve the users awareness. With its tips and information provision, it improves energy efficiency and productivity in the offices. The application introduces users to the dynamic indoor conditions in a for them understandable way. It makes the invisible interactions between the building and occupants visible to them, the building users. The application educates people about the benefits of the dynamic conditions: improved personal health, the building’s energy efficiency and improved indoor quality. The testings in the Huygen office are ongoing but the building occupants experience so far is promising.

We will keep you updated on the progress and relevant results coming from this demo site. For now, take a look at the demo site in this video and follow us on social media or request more information at: info@mobistyle-project.eu ;

MOBISTYLE at Sustainable Places 2019

11/06/2019

As part of the Sustainable Places event, conference held between 5-7 June 2019 in Cagliari a pitching event of three H2020 projects: MOBISTYLE, UtilitEE and enCOMPASS, took place where business cases from these research projects having the same objectives were pitched. The MOBISTYLE project was the initiator of this event where Dr Alessia Melasecche from META group (SSERR service supported by European Commission) provided professional support, guidance and moderated the pitching event. MOBISTYLE team really appreciated the feedbacks received and find this support very beneficial. It helps us to improve the MOBISTYLE exploitation strategy as business value proposition and how to sell our results better. The MOBISTYLE pitch was about the business case of the MOBISTYLE Platform. The MOBISTYLE Platform offers an ecosystem where suppliers can improve their businesses by correlating their products data.  A platform that heals the fragmentation of data, connects it in one data lake and allows new information extraction by advanced data analytics. The gathered data (energy and IEQ (Indoor Environmental Quality)) is interpreted and available in one unique point, the MOBISTYLE Platform. This data is translated in information useful for users and given to the users via people-centric based services and tools that help people to achieve a long-term behavioural change improving their building's energy consumption, indoor comfort and personal health.

We also showed the 360 degrees video of our Dutch demonstration case. Check out the pictures of our pitch, presentation and sharing the 360 degrees experience.

MOBISTYLE at Clima 2019

04/06/2019

The MOBISTYLE-TripleA-reno workshop on ‘’Why people matter?’’ was held at the CLIMA Conference that took place in Bucharest, 26-29 June 2019. The objective of the workshop was to explain and discuss with the audience (mostly engineers) on why people should be taken into the design process when designing technologies and building systems. Nowadays, many people are saturated with technologies and feel quite often irritated by it. For this reason, MOBISTYLE adopts calm technology principles. Instead trying to fight the technology that interrupts and intrudes our lives, in MOBISTYLE project we think how we can use it to improve our lives, personal behavior affecting building’s energy, indoor environmental quality and in the end our personal well-being and health. 


In MOBISTYLE we develop ICT solutions that give feedback to users on how their actions indoors affects the building’s energy usage, surrounding indoor climate and personal health. With that, we aim to educate people on how and why they are consuming energy since often they are not aware their behavior results in wasteful energy usage. This is done according to the building and users needs. The workshop participants were introduced to the storytelling approach where they explained their personal stories and reflected on their everyday life. Furthermore, by using the heros’s journey they were encouraged to brainstorm on how MOBISTYLE could help them towards the better. The same approach was introduced for the MOBISTYLE demonstration sites with actual building occupants to define the functionalities of the MOBISTYLE ICT solutions.

1st meeting of the MOBISTYLE Consumers Advisory Board, Nov 2018

09/12/2018

Active House Alliance as a member of the MOBISTYLE Consumers Advisory Board (MCAB) invited the MOBISTYLE consortium to host a breakout session during the 6th Active House Alliance Symposium in Italy, Lecco on 7-8 November in 2018.

On November 8, the first MCAB meeting was organized as part of the symposium where discussions with members took place – representatives of Leapcraft, ACE, AHA, REHVA, eu.BAC and S.C. PRODAO-ING S.R.L. The MOBISTYLE consortium was represented by the members of the coordinator (Ana Tisov), people-centric and occupant behavior approach (Simona d’Oca), multidisciplinary MOBISTYLE methodology (Andrei Litiu), MOBISTYLE ICT solutions – game, dashboard as Open Users Platform (Eva Coscia), demonstration case representative (Per Heiselberg). Furthermore, Marco Signa, representing the consortium partner Whirlpool, presented to the commercial companies first MOBISTYLE exploitation ideas and how the data could be used to create new valuable information by correlation individual products data (usage and behavior) and aggregating it to discover macro common patterns.

1.png

The discussion with the MCAB members resulted in valuable feedback and input for the MOBISTYLE team in relation to business case development. As the project is two years on its way, the outcomes of the discussion serve as an input for improving the current solution development.

In the coming months, the MOBISTYLE team will translate the key takeaways from these discussions into specific requirements for the MOBISTYLE Open Users Platform.

Next MCAB gathering is going to be organized as part of the international conference CLIMA 2019 (26-29 May 2019, Bucharest, Romania) where MOBISTYLE project is organizing a special MCAB related working session.

Through facilitating a workshop with an open discussion between the MCAB members, the team would like to come to a further exchange of ideas, discuss the usability of the improved MOBISTYLE solutions and discuss the MOBISTYLE exploitation strategy with these important market players from the MCAB.

MOBISTYLE workshop in full swing at the BEHAVE 2018 conference!

18/09/2018

The MOBISTYLE workshop was organized during the BEHAVE conference, on 5 Sep 2018 in Zurich, aiming to bring together EU research projects having the same objective: to improve buildings occupants behavior leading to more energy conscious everyday building usage. In this view, the expertise and lessons learnt of four H2020 sister projects funded in the same call, MOBISTYLE, ENTROPY, ChArGED and PEAKapp, were exchanged. The workshop was opened by the MOBISTYLE Project Advisor, Mr. Pau Rey Garcia, and moderated by the two members of the MOBISTYLE team, PhD Simona d'Oca and anthropology expert, PhD Dan Podjed. Through pitches introducing the sister projects and by facilitating parallel open discussions among the invited speakers (Ana Tisov – MOBISTYLE, Valeriya Azarova – PeakAPP, Anastasia Garbi – ChArGED and Alfonso Ramallo - ENTROPY), the interactive discussion emerged with attendees of the workshop. Based on the received comments and shared views from the interactive discussions, together with the presenter's visions and the concluding remarks with the moderators, the white paper will be elaborated in the coming weeks to position the sister projects into the H2020 EU scope and objectives. This paper will help improve the H2020 projects' progress and maximize the European replication impacts.

Insights from the 4th consortium meeting

13/06/2018

The 4th MOBISTYLE meeting was hosted by the project partner Holonix and took place in Milan, Italy during 23-24 April 2018. The main goal of the meeting was to revise the overall project's progress until the first reporting period (March 2018). Based on this revision, a detailed plan of the MOBISTYLE related activities still to be executed was done in order to come until summer 2018 to the deployment of the first ICT solutions. The consortium partners agreed on final steps covering the three areas:

  1. Revision of the MOBISTYLE Behavioural change action plan for each demonstration case

  2. Integration of the developed methodology in the MOBISTYLE ICT solutions (this lead to a development of two applications: the MOBISTYLE dashboard and the MOBISTYLE game);

  3. Demonstration case assessment and preparation for deployment.

For the first MOBISTYLE demonstration and validation cycle (starting summer 2018), it was agreed that to satisfy the identified user and demonstration case needs, the game from the mock-up of the game will be tested for the Danish and the Polish demonstration case where the first version of the dashboard will be deployed for the Italian and the Slovenian case. As realized, to nudge different behaviours it is important to connect a broad set of parameters (data types coming from the sensors) and look at the interrelations among them. The main challenge is how to connect all different sensing devices from different sources to the single central MOBISTYLE platform and how to then in semi-real time disclose the right information back to the different users (give suggestions on more energy efficient actions). Furthermore, in order to prevent that effect of raised awareness about energy conscious building usage does not die away quickly, the sufficient awareness campaigns need to be organized once the solutions will be deployed. As the MOBISTYLE team agreed, the ICT solutions deployment cannot be seen as a stand-alone measure but the aim is to embed them in long-term awareness campaigns. A well-designed communication and information strategy will be devised together with the demonstration case holders and will lay a foundation for building a trust between end-users and MOBISTYLE consortium/demonstration case holders. The goal is to bring these two sides together where end-users trust the MOBISTYLE team an understand the applications operate in their interest (benefits of energy conscious behaviour presented in a language they speak).

During the first evaluation period, the building occupants will be included in the usability testing and engaged learning to see whether they find the solutions attractive and how do they use the solutions. Their feedback will be used to improve the solutions for the second demonstration cycle as this is one of the aspects of the people-centred approach: create with and for people.

During the meeting, there was also a 2 hours joint workshop to exchange lessons learnt between MOBISTYLE and its sister project H2020 enCOMPASS project (funded in the same call 2016) where enCOMPASS coordinator Professor Piero Fraternali (POLIMI) joined the MOBISTYLE meeting. Both project representatives agreed that this workshop was useful to not just exchange lessons learnt so far but also to brainstorm on current and future challenges in the area of ICT solution development encouraging behaviour change. This also led to a decision that MOBISTYLE will host a workshop as a pre-conference event during the BEHAVE conference on 5 September 2018, 9.00-12.00, together with the MOBISTYLE H2020 sister projects financed between 2014 and 2016; MOBISTYLE, ENTROPY, ChArGED, PEAKapp, GAIA, GREENSOUL and GREENPLAY. It is possible to register for the conference and the MOBISTYLE workshop at the following link: https://www.zhaw.ch/en/about-us/news/events/behave/#c95797

The goal of the workshop is to come to an exchange of ideas between the projects, share the projects’ lessons learned, brainstorm on current and future challenges in the area of ICT solutions encouraging behavior change. Outcomes of this workshop intend to document actionable new ideas in a form of a position or white paper. This paper will help improve the H2020 projects’ progress and maximize the European replication impacts.
