The science of behaviour change
22 May 2024
Utility Week Forum Keynote Stage
The industry cannot do it alone – customers must transform their behaviours if the UK is to deliver a net zero energy and water system. But how can utilities inform and persuade them to do so? First, they must understand the science of behaviour change – the core principles that drive people to behave as they do. Then, they must learn how to support customers to change their behaviours.
It's a tall order, but there is a lot that can be done - join this session to hear insights from behavioural science on the conscious and unconscious processes that influence customers behaviour.
