Addressing the gap between scientific evidence, behavior, and policy is central to moving society toward a sustainable energy path. An increasingly rich body of work in the social and behavioral sciences is examining human motivation and decision making. This research may hold the key to understanding energy sustainability, but its results are seldom integrated into the technical and energy policy communities. This researcher will manage a workshop to develop detailed plans for building a Research Coordination Network focused on energy production and use decisions that bridges the social science, technical, policy and practitioner communities. The workshop will also establish a standing forum at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences to facilitate ongoing dialogue.By connecting social science researchers whose work can directly inform government agencies, professional societies, academic researchers and non-governmental organizations, this workshop will facilitate new interdisciplinary collaborations that will have a lasting impact on future social and behavioral energy research. It will provide the basis for new energy technologies and policies and will advance an agenda for future social and behavioral research on energy production and use.

解决科学证据、行为和政策之间的差距是推动社会走向可持续能源道路的核心。社会和行为科学领域越来越丰富的工作正在研究人类的动机和决策。这项研究可能是理解能源可持续性的关键，但其结果很少被纳入技术和能源政策界。该研究员将管理一个讲习班，制定详细的计划，建立一个研究协调网络，重点是能源生产和使用决策，连接社会科学，技术，政策和从业人员社区。研讨会还将在美国艺术与科学学院建立一个常设论坛，以促进持续的对话。通过将社会科学研究人员联系起来，他们的工作可以直接为政府机构、专业协会、学术研究人员和非政府组织提供信息，研讨会将促进新的跨学科合作，这将对未来的社会和行为能源研究产生持久的影响。 它将为新的能源技术和政策提供基础，并将推动未来关于能源生产和使用的社会和行为研究议程。
