A key aspect is energy production and supply in residential buildings and neighborhoods that increasingly rely on local renewable energy. In particular, flexibilization measures are expected to enable sensible use of volatile energy sources. The case study presented here compares the (thermal) comfort in an energy flexible building in Vienna from the perspective of residents and from the perspective of experts. The study highlights the relevance of scientifically evaluated user-centered planning for a successful energy transition, since the identification of heterogeneous residential comfort needs helps reveal potential conflicts in planning, implementation, and use of innovative building concepts.}, number={1}, journal={TATuP - Zeitschrift für Technikfolgenabschätzung in Theorie und Praxis}, author={Bell, Daniel and Mlinaric, Ines and Gold, Kai and Schneider, Simon}, year={2021}, month={Mar.}, pages={36–42} }
