Connected Home: Do smart homes reduce the ecological footprint? | Johanna Pohl

More and more digital devices are finding their way into everyday life and households. Do digital and networked applications in the home lead to energy savings and the conservation of resources? So do smart home applications make ecological sense? Johanna Pohl presents the key findings of our research in the video.

About the project:
This video is from the project "Digitalisation and sustainability". We’re a team of young scientists who critically examine digitalization from the perspective of different disciplines. We investigate the potentials but also the risks of digital technologies for the urgently needed sustainability transformation of the economy and society. Our project is a cooperation between the Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin) and the Institute for Ecological Economy Research (IÖW).
We are:
Prof. Dr. Tilman Santarius, Technical University of Berlin
Dr. Steffen Lange, Institute for Ecological Economy Research
Friederike Rohde, Institute for Ecological Economy Research
Dr. Maike Gossen, Technical University of Berlin
Dr. Vivian Frick, Institute for Ecological Economy Research
Johanna Pohl, Technical University of Berlin
The project "Digitalization & Sustainability" is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung [BMBF] within the funding program "Junior research groups in Social-ecological research" (Nachwuchsgruppen in der Sozial-ökologischen Forschung).
