Smart Communities: working together to save energy?

Funded by ESRC, Smart Communities was a three and a half year – largely demand-side or ‘behaviour change’ – community energy project (January 2011 to June 2014). The project drew on the principles of participatory action research, and took place in Kingston upon Thames in south west London. The main action phase of the project was from May 2011 to May 2013.
