dc.description.abstract | Abstract Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the role of a particular energy calculator in enhancing the energy efficiency of existing homes by asking how this calculator was developed and how it is domesticated by craftspeople working as energy consultants.
Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on qualitative interviews with users and producers of the energy calculator (n = 22), as well as participation in energy consultation training.
Findings – The paper finds that, in the energy calculator, there is a striking lack of connection between the domestication and script because of lack of energy consultants’ involvement in the design and implementation process.
Practical implications – The enrolment of energy consultants as energy calculator users earlier in and throughout the design process could be valuable in making the transition to an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly building sector.
Social implications – The paper argues for recognition of the role of energy consultants, especially craftspeople, as participants in the design process for tools of governance. This is a call to acknowledge the value of particular skills and experiences possessed by craftspeople doing home consultation.
Originality/value – By understanding the intricate developer–user synchronicity in tools developed for upgrading the building sector, energy mitigation can be made more effective. | en_US |
