This is an important gap on our knowledge as there are major differences between the way energy is managed in the residential and commercial sectors. In residential buildings, occupants are directly in charge of controlling energy use and also response for the energy costs. There is therefore a motivation to keep the balance between comfort and energy consumption. However, in commercial buildings, the majority of buildings are managed centrally, with the owner being responsible for the energy cost. In this case, users typically do not have a direct financial interest to conserve energy at work as they do at home [26]. Even among those who are motivated to conserve energy for non-financial reasons, the presence ofa general control set by the building manager or owner, may impact the perceived ability of an individual to influence change and make it more difficult to access information on how much energy is being used.
