Event Description

BECC is the premier event focused on understanding individual and organizational behavior and decision-making related to energy usage, greenhouse gas emissions, climate change, and sustainability. BECC 2018 will build on the overwhelming success of previous BECC conferences, at which approximately 700 participants discussed innovative policy and program strategies, shared important research findings, and engaged in building dynamic new networks and collaborations.

The BECC Conference is convened by the Berkeley Energy and Climate Institute (BECI), University of California, Precourt Energy Efficiency Center (PEEC), Stanford University, and American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE).

The Behavior, Energy & Climate Change Conference (BECC) is the premier international conference focused on understanding human behavior and decision making and using that knowledge to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future. Currently in its 12th year, BECC is associated with a growing set of allied conferences in Europe and Asia.

BECC draws a broad mix of attendees:

Researchers (e.g., economics, psychology, sociology, anthropology, management, law, humanities, and interdisciplinary)
Decision makers (e.g., from federal, state, and local agencies, as well as legislators, and regulators)
Practitioners (e.g., utilities, planners, consultants, manufacturers, designers, architects, entrepreneurs, marketers, and purchasers)
Influencers (e.g., community organizers, nonprofit leaders, media, religion, and entertainment professionals)
Behavioral research insights can help:

Find real energy savings that will benefit the economy, security, and the environment
Accelerate climate-friendly innovation via appealing, user-focused design, effective management, and fast social diffusion
Increase the benefits and decrease the costs of energy-oriented policies and programs
Improve the analytic models that guide our vision for the future
