摘要本文的目的是引发对能源反馈在未来能源转型中的潜在作用和价值的思考和讨论。目前正在进行一项全球性的研究和政策努力，致力于发展能源反馈（例如通过改进账单、计量或显示），以改变能源使用行为和减少需求。在这方面，越来越多的人呼吁通过使用分类来超越传统的能源反馈。一种替代方法，提出了如何超越能量反馈。有人认为，新的办法不应只注重节省更多的能源，而应考虑到传统的能源反馈如何界定能源问题，如何塑造不同行为者的机构和参与。通过实践反馈、政策反馈和投机性设计方面的新工作，突出了三条超越传统能源反馈方法的潜在途径。未来能源反馈工作的三个核心挑战是：认识到影响日常生活的多种形式的能源相关反馈;与参与塑造能源反馈回路的更广泛的行为者接触;以及使用新的能源相关反馈方法来重新定义能源问题，并为参与能源转型的行为者确立新的角色。
ABSTRACT The aims of this commentary are to generate thought and discussion about the potential role and value of energy feedback in future energy transitions. There is now a global research and policy effort devoted to developing energy feedback (e.g. from improved bills, metering or displays) in order to change energy-use behaviour and reduce demand. Within this, calls to go beyond conventional energy feedback through the use of disaggregation are increasingly common. An alternative approach is presented for how to go beyond energy feedback. Instead of focusing solely on generating larger energy savings, it is argued that new approaches need to consider how conventional energy feedback frames energy problems and shapes the agency and engagement of different actors. Three potential routes are highlighted for going beyond conventional approaches to energy feedback through emerging work on practice feedback, policy feedback and speculative design. Three core challenges for future work on energy feedback are: recognizing the multiple forms of energy-related feedback that shape everyday life; engaging with a much wider range of actors involved in shaping energy feedback loops; and using new approaches to energy-related feedback to reframe energy problems and establish new roles for actors engaged in energy transitions.
