Increasing Social Awareness of Consumer Behaviors On Smart Grids Energy Systems

Bekir BULUC, Halil Ibrahim BULBUL

Abstract


The aim of this study is to increase social awareness on consumer behaviors towards smart grid energy system and find out emotional effects of power outages. In parallel to this aim, the study tries to answer the following research questions:

  1. In recent years have you ever experienced with long time power outage (energy, water, internet, etc.) that affected your daily life?
  2. What did you do when you first encounter with one of the outage?
  3. What could be the cause of the outage happened?
  4. The Power outage has created what kind of negative effects on you?
