Description
BEIS is currently carrying out work to explore the evidence base for heating controls to contribute to one of the Department's energy and climate change objectives to decarbonise heat. Different types of heating controls are currently being examined in terms of energy savings, cost-effectiveness, thermal comfort, usability, accessibility and evidence gaps. As part of this work, BEIS is looking for support in reviewing the international evidence base and policy experiences for heating controls. This builds upon a recent former Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC)-commissioned scoping review of the UK evidence base for domestic heating controls, which assessed the cost-effectiveness, usability, energy savings and evidence gaps for different types of domestic heating controls. The project is split into two parts, though the results are to be presented in one report and one analytical spreadsheet. The first part should use systematic evidence review techniques to identify, synthesise and analyse the international evidence base on domestic heating controls for cost-effectiveness, energy savings and usability. This should include an assessment of evidence quality. The second part should review the policy, legislative and regulatory experiences of other countries with domestic and non-domestic heating controls. Suppliers should also propose a method for determining the applicability of identified international experiences to the UK context.
