▼ A social practices theoretical framework and mixed methodology are used to explore household sustainable daily practices in Edmonton, AB. Sustainable daily practices involve those actions undertaken by households to minimize their impact on the environment (e.g., cycling to avoid driving). Because social practice theory considers the reciprocity between agency and structure in establishing habitual routines, this perspective allows for the integration of competing theoretical explanations in the study of sustainable consumption (i.e., treadmill theory and consumer “lock-in”). Qualitative interviews are used to shed light on how peer-to-peer learning within a network of ecological citizens sustains individuals’ commitment to reducing consumption. Acting as a group is part of reclaiming consumption, as is the attempt to alter local social context to lessen barriers for others to live more sustainably. Barriers include built infrastructure and social norms. Members of the network described in the qualitative phase reside in a central neighbourhood. Unlike suburban neighbourhoods, the central area is within cycling distance of the downtown and university areas, has walking access to shops and services, and is adjacent to a large natural area with multi-use trails. In this central neighbourhood, residents interviewed meet frequently and informally with other households in the area also interested in sustainable living. In contrast, households interviewed in suburban areas describe a sense of isolation from like-minded others and a paucity of neighbours who inspire them to deepen their commitment to the environment (i.e., through positive reinforcement or knowledge-sharing). To further understand the influence of neighbourhood – as a structural feature – on daily practices, a survey instrument is used to compare a central urban and a suburban neighbourhood. The quantitative data are used in a cluster analysis resulting in four subgroups of households. The clusters do not differ greatly on socio-demographic variables, but are strongly differentiated by neighbourhood of residence. Thus the thesis concludes that reclaiming consumption, or reducing one’s consumption in concert with others, is more easily achieved in an area with public meeting points, the presence of other households committed to reducing consumption, and the opportunity to conspicuously display one’s daily practices around sustainable consumption.

With approximately 95 quadrillion Btu, the United States accounts for nearly 18% of the world’s total energy demand, and industrial sector within U.S. consumes as much as 34% of this energy intake. Growing energy demands, continuous worldwide depletion of natural resources and environmental regulations, have become a strong factor in the industrial sector for reducing energy consumption in the recent years. However, manufacturing facilities are often complex systems consisting of different components that have strict requirements in terms of productivity and throughput, making it particularly challenging to achieve ambitious energy reduction targets. Moreover, owners of such manufacturing enterprises are reluctant to make changes in their processes to avoid jeopardizing performance optimality; prompted by the aforementioned, the following questions arise: (1) How to simultaneously account for energy reduction goals and performance requirements in an industrial facility? (2) How to incorporate the existing infrastructure and practices in an industrial facility to reduce the energy consumption and expenditure without sacrificing the productivity? (3) How to incorporate the dynamic interdependencies inherent in the components of a manufacturing environment to achieve optimal energy efficiency? This work aims at providing the owner of a manufacturing enterprise with a modeling framework to achieve cost effective energy reduction while maintaining productivity and profitability. We provide a stochastic energy-aware production planning optimization based on a two-dimensional measure, “Energy-Performance”, and propose a scenario generation approach to solve the planning problem. At the building level, we propose a “business value-driven” energy asset management to achieve energy reduction at the building level while assuring business objective and occupant productivity requirements are maintained. Using a network modeling approach, we provide a framework to calculate the dynamic interdependencies between the components of an industrial facility and define the optimal share of energy reduction for each such component, given a set of alternative solutions. Finally, since most of the underlying Energy-Performance analysis and optimization models are highly data-intensive, we provide a data and metering infrastructure to support the proposed modeling approaches.

▼ In recent decades, individuals as well as businesses – mainly those living and operating within advanced capitalist systems – have become increasingly aware of the social context of production and, thus, of the impact consumption has on the environment, animals and other fellow humans. Such reflexivity is echoed both in spheres of production (e.g. corporate social responsibility policies) and consumption (e.g. labelling schemes such as fair-trade and organic). Under these conditions the ‘ethical consumer’ was born. While, however, the concepts of ethical and political consumption have been around for some time now, our understanding of what it really means to be ‘ethical’ as a consumer today is still very fuzzy. In contrast with previous studies which ascribe a priori certain meanings and criteria to the ethical consumer concept, this study follows a bottom-up approach that provides space for individuals to express their own views on ethical consumption. To cater for a deeper understanding of the phenomenon under investigation, the research is designed as a case study within a specific geographical location; Partick, Glasgow. This study makes use of primary data generated through 20 in-depth interviews with self-identified ethical consumers, 10 interviews and 15 questionnaires with managers of grocery shops operating in the area, as well as 112 questionnaires completed by the public in a street survey. The findings challenge our conventional understanding of ‘ethics’ in the context of consumption; being ethical as a consumer extends beyond simply purchasing ethically marketed products and services, to include various lifestyle choices. Consumers raised concerns about the degree and nature of change that conventional ethical consumption can achieve. Utilising insights from this research, the study draws a conceptual distinction between the “ethical Shopper” (representing the side of ethical consumption that is hegemonically market-driven) and the “ethical Consumer” (representing its creative, pro-active, agency-driven counterpart). It is suggested that the latter allows consumption as a tool for social change to reach its full potential, since it escapes the fabricated ‘ethics’ of the market. Feeding back to the theoretical frameworks of ethical and political consumption, this study highlights the class and taste bias built into the (very expensive) idealized model of ethical lifestyle and, thus, calls for the inclusion of different types of consumer action such as downshifting, file-sharing, or even collective shoplifting, which have been –until now – neglected.

Energy is one of the most significant presented factors in economic literature. Today, the consumption and efficiency of energy have affected all the economical and industrial activities. Our world is the world of economical and industrial development and the process of this development has even been accelerated through the recent decades. Compared to the past, energy issue has become so extensive and serious that one of the major goals of economic policy in achieving an economic growth and development is to implement proper energy consumption. Nowadays economists have discovered the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth and development in each country. Considering the especial situation of Iran in the world and in the region as well, energy sector is more important in this country. The energy of Iran, as one of the most powerful import export energy of the world, is very potent in the world economy. While Iran is benefited from energy exportation, it can also affect the economy of importer countries. This thesis has dealt with energy consumption, growth rate of energy consumption, energy reserves and relationship between energy consumption and Iran‘s economic growth and development. In addition, important indices like per capita consumption, energy intensity and energy coefficient, have been introduced and a comparison between Iran‘s economy and other countries is made in this thesis. This study there presented calculation of oil products, natural gas and electricity consumption during 1984-2004 which is 98.41% of the total energy consumption in Iran. Oil products containing liquid gas, petrol, aircraft fuel, kerosene, gasoil and fuel oil stand for 61.8% of the total energy consumption. Furthermore, the analytical study of energy changes is presented. In addition, this thesis introduced Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and discussed the situation of India and Iran as member-observes in SCO for the further development of their energy sectors. The estimation results inferred that oil products consumption causes economic growth with feedback. Further investigation indicates that economic growth leads to the 14 natural gas consumption without feedback, while in the case of electricity sector and economic growth; there is no effective relationship between them in Iran.

Alcoholism was once considered a problem for men but recent research is indicting that about one third of all alcohol-abusing persons, are women. Wilsnack and Wilsnack (1978) point out that increased drinking among women might be a result of the social movement and changes in women s, roles, especially changes that involve exposure to formerly masculine environments and roles. Thus gender gap in drinking behaviour is decreasing because of the gradual changes in social norms. Nonetheless women are underrepresented as subjects for research studies in alcoholism and left out of the forum for discussion on alcohol consumption. Such gender differences in alcohol use have bolstered costly biases in how societies identify and try to control alcohol-related problems. Such attitude further prevents these women from getting the needed intervention and treatment (NIAAA, 1998). Thus the main aim of this study was to devote research attention to women s alcohol consumption while investigating differences between male and female respondents on alcohol expectancies, social cultural variables, stress and coping indicators as various antecedents to alcohol consumption and psycho social consequences that arise; with levels of alcohol consumption (hazardous, harmful use and alcohol dependency), as the dependent variable, within Goan society. newlineThe major emphasis of this research work was to gather data that is distinctive to alcohol consumption in women. For this purpose the respondents were administered a questionnaire that initially categorized them into various stages of high risk alcohol consumption i.e hazardous, harmful use and dependency. They were later measured on various indices i.e. the alcohol expectancy questionnaire scored cognitive motivators and beliefs which people have about alcohol consumption. The brief stress and coping inventory by Richard H. Rahe was used to find out different areas of stress and coping skills.

The aviation sector has suffered a big blow from the series of recent economic depressions. Airlines are struggling to stay in business and are looking for multiple ways to cut on expenses. This has led to the initiation of studies to find strategies which will reduce an airline’s overall fuel consumption. One of these methods is to initiate intermediate refueling stop operations on long-haul flights. This means that instead of flying with a fully fueled aircraft from e.g., Amsterdam to Tokyo, the route is split into two or more segments which are flown with the appropriate amount of fuel and possibly even different aircraft types more suitable for shorter range flight. By developing a novel computer model, this research aims at finding the answers to the following questions: What are the fuel consumption- and emission savings that can be attained by implementing this model on specific routes and with specific aircraft types? What are the route requirements to optimally benefit from operating flights with intermediate refueling stops? Which costs are directly linked to introducing refueling stops, what are the consequences and what can be done to reduce these costs? How does this concept influence the airport groundside operations and what is the impact on the airport infrastructure? The model consists of two independent programs which work in cohesion to find the optimal stopover airport for a specific route operated by a specific aircraft. The first program is the aircraft model, which is capable of calculating the fuel consumption on a specific mission. The calculations are based on the fundamentals of flight and the equations of motion. In total three aircraft types are incorporated and together cover short-, medium- and long range operations. The second program is the route model which is able to identify the costs for a specific segment and determines the optimal route by use of a modified version of the Dijkstra Algorithm and an airport database of ILS Cat. II/III equipped airports. This model computes a buffer zone in which to look for intermediate stop airports and selects the most advantageous option, based on local waiting times, landing- and navigation fees and fuel prices. The results show that on routes suitable for intermediate stop operations, the fuel reduction ranges from 5% - 10%. For the total cost reduction, these values are around 2% - 4% per flight. These figures strongly depend on the mission conditions and stopover position. Besides the fuel price and stopover time, the wind velocity and direction also have a vital role in the feasibility of the concept.

▼ There is a long history of examining the relationship between consumption and wealth. The recent subprime mortgage crisis in the US and the European sovereign debt crisis associated with the remarkable fluctuations in both stock and housing markets have brought new concerns over the response of consumer spending to asset price shocks. This thesis re-investigates the relationship between consumption, income, financial and housing wealth: specifically, the wealth effect on consumption based on both time-series data in an examination of the US and panel data in an examination of OECD countries. It is argued that nonlinear estimation might provide a better explanation of fluctuations in the relationship between consumption and wealth, given the nature of the studied variables and the complexity of economic systems. The econometric methods employed include the Markov regime-switching approach, the quantile autoregressive distributed-lag framework, panel unit root and cointegration tests, and a panel vector autoregressive procedure. In terms of the US market, only weak evidence of a linear cointegrating relationship is found between consumption, income and wealth. It suggests that the consumption-wealth relation is better characterised in regime-specific terms. Furthermore, the transition probabilities between regimes are time-varying and driven by monetary indicators such as interest rates. In addition, different speeds of adjustment across the range of quantiles are identified in the long-run relationship between consumption, income and wealth. Wealth effects are found to be larger in lower quantiles. The findings imply that asymmetric monetary policies should be responsible for the movement in asset prices in analysing future inflation and aggregate demand due to the sensitivity of financial and housing wealth effects in different economic states. In OECD studies, cointegration evidence is only observed in market-based countries, not in bank-based economies. Moreover, the wealth effects are found to be larger in market-based than in bank-based countries. In addition, since a positive wealth effect caused by an increase in capital value of housing might be partly offset by a negative price effect caused by an increase in the cost of housing services, the ‘net housing wealth effect’ actually is found to be slightly smaller than the stock market wealth effect in OECD countries. However, due to the significant boom in real estate markets since the 1990s, the housing wealth effect has clearly exceeded the share market wealth effect over the past decade. The results show that asset wealth has asymmetric effects on consumption, with stronger and more persistent effects from positive asset wealth shocks.

▼ The objective of this study was to describe thoughts, knowledge, and dietary practices with regard to protein, and how these factors related to current recommendations among college-age males. A convenience sample of non-athlete college-age males (n=47), ages 18-24 years, completed 7 day dietary records (analyzed using NDSR), accelerometer assessments, anthropometric assessments (height, weight, waist circumference, and Bod Pod), and a brief semi-structured interview on protein knowledge and behaviors. Participants were grouped according to protein intake with 15% consuming less than 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day (g/kg/d), 70% consuming 0.8-1.99 g/kg/d, and 15% consuming ≥2 g/kg/d. Overall, 98% fell within the acceptable macronutrient distribution range of protein. Food sources of protein included chicken and a variety of other meats. Participants were involved in an average of 122.57 ± 116.31 minutes of physical activity per week. Primary sources of information about protein included the internet, specifically body building websites, and, word of mouth. Twenty-five percent of the sample thought they needed “at least one gram of protein per pound” of body weight. The other 75% of the population did not mention a specific amount of protein they thought they should be consuming. Based on data from this research study, non-athlete college-age males were largely misinformed on protein needs and received their information from unreliable sources including word of mouth and the internet. Contradictions were found between two primary recommendations for protein intake (acceptable macronutrient distribution range versus the Recommended Dietary Allowance). For some of the participants, whether they were found to be consuming appropriate amounts of protein differed by which recommendation system was used in analysis. These conflicting recommendations could result in confusion between professionals and individuals in interpreting protein needs and adequacy. Advisors/Committee Members: Sarah E. Colby, Katie Kavanagh, Melissa Hansen-Petrik.

▼ This thesis presents a sociological framework for understanding food allergy. Food allergy is increasingly appearing on policy and media platforms in contemporary Western societies. Debates have emerged about the prevalence of food allergy and also about the “rights” of those experiencing food allergies in a number of public and private spheres. Food allergy is a specifically social phenomenon, emerging as a consequence of modernization processes. Additionally, the allergy “zone” is comprised of a number of actors and agents including the institutions of medicine, pharmaceutical companies, politicians, governments, lay actors and an array of medical technologies. Despite being an issue of major sociological significance, few empirical studies have explored the everyday experience of food allergy. Therefore, in order to understand the lived experience of food allergy, I construct a conceptual framework which draws upon theories of risk and social governance, the sociology of consumption and sociological studies of science and embodiment. These literatures shed important light upon how individuals negotiate and (de)construct the risks associated with their conditions. Drawing on data acquired from eight in-depth interviews with those who identify as food allergic, I argue food allergy need be understood as a form and practice of consumption. Thus, far from being passive subjects, this approach characterises individuals as being embodied and reflexive agents who actively deconstruct notions of risk and recurrently engage in practices of “edgework”. These actors negotiate the medical and scientific parameters of their conditions as well as the parameters and demands of consumer culture. Whilst these theoretical and conceptual frameworks are useful for understanding the experience of food allergy, I recommend further studies of food allergy acknowledge the diversity of actors/institutions involved in the discursive production and circulation of information about food allergy; specifically homeopathic and alternative practitioners and organizations. Additionally, I argue that future studies of allergy must acknowledge the fundamentally embodied experience of the condition and the consequences this has for its definition and experience. For the purposes of future studies of food allergy, I also suggest it would be worthwhile to further explore the ways in which individuals who experience food allergies and intolerances are enrolled and participate in biopolitical regimes.

▼ Sanayileşme sonrası yaşanan teknolojik gelişmeler ve üretim faaliyetlerinin hızla artması tüketim alışkanlıklarını da etkilemiştir. Tüketimdeki hızlı artış, doğal kaynakları yok olma aşamasına getirmektedir. Sürdürülebilirlik ve sürdürülebilir gelişme kavramları son yılların en çok tartışılan konuları arasında yer almaktadır. Mevcut tüketim kalıplarının olası ekolojik etkilerinin vurgulandığı Brundtland Raporu, aşırı tüketim, sürdürülemez tüketim kalıpları ve sürdürülebilir tüketim gibi kavramları ön plana çıkarmıştır. Son yıllarda sürdürülebilir tüketimi sağlama noktasında insanlar artık çevreyi korumak için alınan tedbirlere özen göstermektedir. Satın alma davranışlarını gerçekleştirirken çevreye daha az zarar veren ürünleri (ozonla dost, yeşil ürün, eko-etiket vb.) seçme eğilimindedirler. Birleşmiş Milletlerin Binyıl Kalkınma hedefleri arasında, 2030 yılına kadar insanların esenliğini korumak için yeni bir sürdürülebilir gelişme anlayışı kapsamında yeşil büyümenin, sürdürülebilir üretim ve tüketim bağlamında desteklenmesi yer almaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, yukarda belirlenen çerçevede, tüketicilerin sürdürülebilir tüketim tutumları ile çevreci ürün satın alma davranışlarını etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek ve demografik özellikler açısından farklılıklarını incelemektir. Çalışmada farklı meslek grupları arasında, çevre bilinçli tüketim, çevresel değer, çevresel farkındalık ve çevresel duyarlılık değişkenlerinin çevreci ürün tüketme davranışı üzerindeki etkileri bir yapısal eşitlik modeli (YEM) aracılığıyla araştırılmıştır. Araştırma Bolu ili merkezinde çalışan 400 kişinin katıldığı anketten elde edilen sonuçlarla yapılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda, çalışan bireylerin çevreci ürün tüketme davranışını en çok açıklayan değişken olarak çevre bilinçli tüketim olduğu belirlenmiştir. En az açıklayan değişkenin ise çevresel farkındalık olduğu ortaya çıkarılmıştır. The technological developments after the industrialization and the rapid increase in the production activities have severely affected the consumption habits. Hence, rapid increase alike in consumption activities causes the natural resources approach to the brink of demolish. The concepts of sustainability and sustainable development are among the most debated concerns of recent years' public opinion topics. Brundtland Report, which emphasizes the possible ecological effects of existing consumption patterns, has highlighted concepts such as over-consumption, unsustainable consumption patterns and sustainable consumption. Lately, more people are taking care of the measures in order to protect the environment. They tend to choose products that are less harmfull (such as ozone-friendly, green products, eco-labels, etc.) when performing purchasing behaviors. The United Nations Millennium Development Goals until 2030 include the promotion of green growth in the context of sustainable production and sustainable consumption as parts of a new concept set of sustainable development to enhance people's well-being. The aim of this study is to determine the factors… Advisors/Committee Members: Güneş, Saniye Gül (advisor).

▼ The purpose of this study was to explore the symbolic meanings consumers took from a brand of sustainable products. This interaction between consumer and product is modelled by McCracken’s (1986) model of symbolic meaning transfer, which served as the study’s lens of interpretation. The symbolic meanings of products are important as consumers use these to build their self-image. This transfer of symbolic meaning is completed through the act of consumption. The study looked to provide an understanding of the role of consumption in order to inform attempts to initiate a shift in cultural values towards consumption. The undertaking of this research is significant as it contributes to a greater understanding of the sociological and symbolic function in conceptualisations of sustainable consumption. This would help to inform solutions that improve the sustainability of modern consumption. The study interviewed seven consumers of Ecostore products, a brand of sustainable household cleaning and body care products. The questions in the interview were informed by the model of symbolic meaning transfer and sought to allow participants to tell their consumption stories and rituals of the product. Questions explored the actions that participants took with Ecostore-branded products. The data collected was analysed by way of thematic analysis. The findings uncovered symbolic meanings of virtue, personal and collective values, health and trust in Ecostore products. Participants used these symbolic meanings to create their self-image through the ritual of consuming them. These rituals included the actions of buying, using, gifting and the disposal of the product. The self-image that participants built expressed that they were virtuous, responsible, contributing and risk-adverse members of society. Further, the personal and collective values of participants could be expressed through the consumption of the product. This ability to build self-image from Ecostore products was important to consumers and contributed to their decision to select them over others. This study has contributed to knowledge in the area of sustainable consumption by highlighting the symbolic significance of the consumption practice in the context of sustainable products. The symbolic meanings identified could be reflected in new product development, marketing management and advertising communications. This could help to increase levels of the consumption of sustainable products. Advisors/Committee Members: Kennedy, Ann-Marie (advisor).

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The introduction of Energy Management (EM) interventions aimed at reducing electrical energy consumption in the residential, commercial and industrial load sectors has expanded rapidly on a global scale in recent years. These programs are driven by environmental concerns, capacity constraints experienced in generation and transmission and the need to improve end-use efficiency. The implementation of EM schemes often involves financial incentives funded by governments and utilities. Measurement and Verification (M&V) performance assessments aimed at determining the savings impacts form an integral part of the management of these EM incentive programmes. M&V baseline development involves the development and implementation of accurate models that relate the energy consumption of a targeted load to variable energy-governing factors in order to determine actual savings impacts. The electrical energy consumption associated with sanitary water heating represents a sizeable component of the cumulative energy consumption associated with a number of load categories found in the various load sectors. In general, the electricity consumption profiles associated with sanitary hot water consumption correlates closely with the household electricity consumption profiles found in the residential load sector, particularly in the sense that it is influenced by the same socio-economic factors and human behavioural patterns. Soft computing methods have been employed successfully for residential load prediction, as these are tolerant of stochastic behaviour and uncertainty and do not require exact input to output matching. Particular success in the field of residential Short Term Load Forecasting (STLF) has been achieved using Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS). An ANFIS load forecasting model with a long prediction horizon of up to a year is found to be capable of reasonable modelling accuracy for the estimation of the time-series profile of a system. It also exhibits very good prediction accuracy when calculating the total energy use over time of that profile. The load data used in this study is of student residence heat pump power consumption profiles and spans over four years with 48 samples for each day. The training inputs that are considered other than the load are the time of the day, the day of the week, the day of the year and the temperature. After the proof of concept, a comparative case study is performed with the view to explore optimal configurations of differing inputs to the ANFIS method. The effects of compartmentalising the dataset into subsets representing different characteristics, thereby deriving different models representing different cyclic periods, are also explored. It is found that compartmentalising the load model into 48 ANFIS sub-models, each serving a specific half-hourly time period in the day, results in the most best modelling accuracy.

Dans un contexte de changement du système de tarification d’eau et d’électricité au Maroc, les ménages casablancais peuvent- ils changer de comportement pour réduire leur consommation? Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons identifié les différentes causes du verrou comportemental des individus et les opportunités de changement cités en littérature. Ensuite, nous avons analysé l’évolution de la consommation d’eau et d’électricité des ménages marocains et casablancais avant la mise en place du nouveau système de tarification et observé les enjeux nationaux du secteur de l’énergie au Maroc. A partir de 62 interviews qualitatives, nous avons observé les différents types de comportements. En analysant de façon détaillée les données collectées, nous avons ressorti les différents facteurs influençant le comportement de consommation d’énergie des ménages interviewés notamment : leur attitude, leur capacité à agir, leur préférence environnementale et l’influence sociale de leur entourage, les comportements mis en place suite à l’augmentation tarifaire et leurs dispositions futures. Une attention particulière a été attribuée aux quatre groupes de ménages que nous avons identifiés à partir de différents critères. Nos résultats montrent dans quelle mesure la nouvelle tarification agit comme une motivation extrinsèque pour réduire la consommation d’énergie. Enfin, nous avons dressé des recommandations pour les décideurs publics en matière énergétique permettant d’accompagner les ménages vers une consommation durable et responsable.

In a context of change in the water and electricity pricing system in Morocco, can households in Casablanca change their behavior to reduce their consumption ? To answer this question, we identified the different causes of the behavioral lock of individuals and the opportunities for change cited in literature.Then, we have analyzed the evolution of the water and electricity consumption of Moroccan and Casablancan households before the implementation of the new pricing system and observedthe national stakes of the energy sector in Morocco. From 62 qualitative interviews, we have observed the different types of behavior. By analyzing in detail the collected data, we have revealed the different factors influencing the energy consumption behavior of the households interviewed in particular: their attitude, their ability to act, their environmental preference and the social influence of those around them, the behaviors put in place following the tariff increase and their future arrangements. One special attention was allocated to four groups of households that we identified using different criteriaas an extrinsic motivation to reduce energy consumption Finally, we have made recommendations for energy policy makers to support households towards sustainable and responsible consumption.

Une attention particulière a été attribuée aux quatre groupes de ménages que nous avons identifiés à partir de différents critères. Nos résultats montrent dans quelle mesure la nouvelle tarification agit comme une motivation extrinsèque pour réduire la consommation d’énergie. Enfin, nous avons dressé des recommandations pour les décideurs publics en matière énergétique permettant d’accompagner les ménages vers une consommation durable et responsable.

In a context of change in the water and electricity pricing system in Morocco, can households in Casablanca change their behavior to reduce their consumption ? To answer this question, we identified the different causes of the behavioral lock of individuals and the opportunities for change cited in literature.Then, we have analyzed the evolution of the water and electricity consumption of Moroccan and Casablancan households before the implementation of the new pricing system and observedthe national stakes of the energy sector in Morocco. From 62 qualitative interviews, we have observed the different types of behavior. By analyzing in detail the collected data, we have revealed the different factors influencing the energy consumption behavior of the households interviewed in particular: their attitude, their ability to act, their environmental preference and the social influence of those around them, the behaviors put in place following the tariff increase and their future arrangements. One special attention was allocated to four groups of households that we identified using different criteriaas an extrinsic motivation to reduce energy consumption Finally, we have made recommendations for energy policy makers to support households towards sustainable and responsible consumption.
