Penser nos futurs modes de vie dans les démarches de prospective énergétique : proposition d’une approche par la modélisation / Investigating long-term lifestyle changes into energy foresight studies : a modelling approach

Le Gallic, Thomas 21 December 2017 (has links)
Le mode de vie des pays industrialisés, basé sur le consumérisme, est considéré comme l’un des principaux moteurs de l’usage de ressources et de la dégradation de l’environnement global. Sa substitution par d’autres modes de vie constitue l’une des clés pour bâtir un futur soutenable, d’autant qu’il tend à être imité dans les pays émergents et en développement. Pourtant, la question de la transition des modes de vie a été jusqu’à présent relativement peu investie par les politiques publiques, y compris par celles qui visent à répondre aux enjeux de la transition énergétique et de l’atténuation du changement climatique. C’est dans le but d’encourager les parties prenantes de ces enjeux à se saisir de cette question que nos recherches ont été initiées. Pour cela, nous avons choisi de nous concentrer sur la démarche prospective, qui est l’un des outils d’aide à la décision privilégiés pour éclairer les politiques de l’énergie et du changement climatique dont les enjeux portent sur les moyen et long termes. Nous avons constaté que la question était jusqu’à présent très partiellement abordée dans la plupart des exercices de prospective énergie-climat. Ce constat tient en partie au fait que, alors que la pratique actuelle accorde une place importante à la modélisation, le formalisme des modèles utilisés n’a bien souvent pas été pensé pour traiter de cette notion multidimensionnelle. Dans ce contexte, notre contribution porte sur les plans conceptuel et méthodologique. Nous avons dans un premier temps défini un cadre conceptuel pour aborder la notion de mode de vie et clarifier son rôle dans le système énergétique. Dans un second temps, nous avons proposé une approche par la modélisation destinée à simuler des scénarios d’évolution des modes de vie à l’échelle de la France. Cette approche formelle, dont le développement a constitué le cœur de nos recherches, permet de quantifier la demande en logements, la demande en mobilité et la demande en biens et services qui résultent de ces scénarios et définissent la structure des usages de l’énergie. La mise en œuvre de cette approche est illustrée dans ce manuscrit par la simulation de trois scénarios d’évolution des modes de vie. / Consumerist lifestyles in industrialized countries are considered one of the main drivers of global resource use and environment degradation. Changes in these lifestyles are therefore one of the keys to achieving a sustainable future, especially as these lifestyles also tend to be pursued by some economic classes in developing countries. Yet the lifestyles issue has only marginally been considered in public policies until now, including the ones that aimed to address the challenges of energy transition and climate change mitigation. Our research was initiated in order to encourage all parties engaging with these challenges to take into account our future lifestyles in this context. To this aim, we focused on the prospective approach. It is indeed one of the tools and processes that is most commonly used to support decision-makers on the long-term challenges raised by energy transition and tackling climate change. We found that most foresight studies did not go in depth while addressing the issue of lifestyles, especially the model-based studies. Indeed, the models generally used in these studies are not thought out to allow for proper consideration of this multidimensional issue. To answer for this, we propose a conceptual framework that allows proper understanding of the lifestyle concept and clarifies its role in the energy system. As a core contribution, we developed a modelling approach to simulate lifestyle-change scenarios for France. This formal approach allows us to quantify the demands for housing, mobility, goods and services that arises in these scenarios and defines the structure of energy uses. Three scenarios for lifestyle changes are considered in this manuscript to demonstrate implementations of the proposed approach.

Improvisatory home heating : the gap between intended and actual use of radiators and TRVs

Osz, Katalin January 2016 (has links)
Ongoing modification and change is core to how domestic and built environments function. Thus occupants domestication and development of home heating practices around low-carbon technologies is likely to exceed what building engineering sciences have the ability to plan ahead for. Yet, environmental policies and low -carbon industry approaches to sustainable energy consumption are characterised by a high degree of technological determinism. Disciplinary approaches to sustainable energy consumption tend to separate home heating into stable, routine interaction with control points, environmental factors and socio-demographic drivers. Framing low-carbon technical change in isolation from domestic environments often leads to a gap between intended and actual use of technologies. By focusing on TRVs (thermostatic radiators valve) and radiators, this thesis takes an interdisciplinary turn to jointly examine the social and environmental elements of households energy use. A turn to sensory ethnography and practice-place relationships offers a way to better understand how people use energy for space heating in relation to the buildings they live in and how improvisatory uses of technologies emerge from flows of material, domestic, sensory and physical contingencies of the home. Combining home video tours with building energy monitoring in eight homes, the thesis demonstrates that home heating is a place-event of the home because heating systems and energy consumption are woven into the fabric of everyday life. Environmental elements show that the social and technical are inseparable in energy used for space heating and individual elements imply that the domestication of technologies is highly unpredictable. The thesis synthesises findings into a taxonomy table of irregular radiator and TRV use. On the one hand, irregularities indicate that improvisatory uses of technologies are productive sources of sustainable change because they can be potential sites for co-design. On the other hand, the interwoven character of the social and technical in households energy use critically challenges how environmental policy, low-carbon industry and disciplinary approaches frame intervention into sustainable energy consumption. The thesis argues for the value of logic of intervention and sustainable change that is collaborative, system-focused and gradually uncovers interrelationships.
