Behavior, Energy & Climate Change Conference (BECC)

October 7-10, 2018  •  Building Bridges  •  Washington, DC

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
