Abstract

Visualization of energy consumption patterns is expected to enforce ecologically responsible behavior. Visualization performs a vital role by assisting residential end-users to understand and manage their energy consumption in a sustainable manner. The main objective of visualizing energy consumption is to inculcate awareness among residents and to encourage energy conserving behavior. A robust design is essential to achieving an effective visualization. This article discusses the preliminary research work on identifying the design requirements for visualization followed by the future direction in this area of research.
