The EnergyFit Research questions What information do consumers need? At what decision
points? From which trusted sources? In what form?
What technological and market framework will facilitate this? What’s the appropriate governance structure and funding
model for this framework? What is the implementation plan and business case for
establishing this framework?

A taste of early findings (1) WHEN Point of sale or lease! WHAT Most important home feature: good natural light and location Comfortable home = cool/warm home Uncomfortable home = uninsulated home. Orientation/ aspect and/or reverse-cycle air-conditioner most influenced
home purchase Energy efficient home requires ‘sacrifice’ of heat/cold, or quality of life ‘Energy efficient’ more meaningful than ‘sustainable’, ‘eco’, ‘low carbon’ Best energy efficiency benefits from natural lighting, solar PV, insulation,
floor coverings

www.lowcarbonlivingcrc.com.au A taste of early findings (2) WHY Owners install EE for reduced running costs Limited choice for tenants in landlord’s market Investing in energy efficiency for comfort = long-term, stable tenants BUT
investors need financial return Improving energy efficiency = ‘too expensive’ WHO High trust on energy efficiency from architects, electricians, government,
friends, family/ neighbours HOW Energy rating info: best when comparative, colourful, clear but sceptical of
assumptions. Info delivery best through energy info system/ tool, gov. websites, case
studies
