Using apps, live feedback and challenging users to save energy – Read the article about GoEco! in the newest issue of ENERGEIA (page 4). The article is a follow-up to the blog post, which was published on ENERGEIA in March.

On the last Sunday, April 24 2016, the first phase of GoEco! officially ended. Hereby, we would like to thank all the study participants again! For all the route validations, for the immense and good feedback we received, and for the general interest in the topic and the study. During the next months, we will be preparing everything for the second phase in Fall, and assemble the detailed individual mobility reports for study participants.

At the same time as the end of the first phase, an article about GoEco! was published in the weekly spotlight on energy research of the ETH Zurich Energy Science Center.

On the 10th April 2016 GoEco! was presented on Schweiz am Sonntag. Read the full article (in German):

GoEco! was presented at the Transport Research Arena Tra 2016 conference in Warsaw.
You can download the poster here!

Yesterday and today we carried out two webinar meetings: Francesca presented the project and the use of the GoEco! Tracker app and the participants could ask their questions “live”.
“Live” within quotation marks, since we are in GoEco!: the participants didn’t have to move to meet Francesca and they could follow us directly from home!

If you lost the webinars, here you can watch the video of yesterday’s meeting (in Italian):

The GoEco! Tracker app is now downloadable from the stores and the first GoEco! tracking period will start next Monday March, 7 2016.
You can download and install the app following the instructions on the “Get the app” section. For all the members of the GoEco! community we have prepared some videos introducing the project and the activities we will perform and giving instructions on how to effectively use the app. You can find them in the “For the participants” section (only available in Italian and in German): watch them and send us your feedback on the app!
If you still want to sign in or to invite family and friends to participate, hurry up! We’ll accept applications until March, 7 2016.

On February, 29 2016, Tages-Anzeiger dedicated a full-page article to GoEco!

The recruitment of participants is coming to the end and GoEco! will very soon go live!

Activities will in fact start on Monday, March 7 2016, with a first monitoring period of the participants’ mobility patterns.

We are developing a few videos introducing to the GoEco! project, the activities we will develop together and what will happen in the next months.

In addition to the videos, the GoEco! Tracker app will soon be downloadable from the Google Play store (Android) and the App store (iOS).

We are also organizing some webinars dedicated to GoEco!: online meetings during which participants to the project can ask their questions live. The webinars will take place on Tuesday March 8 at 12:30 p.m. and on Wednesday March 9 at 6:30 p.m.: save the date!

Finally, applications to GoEco! are still possible until Friday March, 4 2016: you have a few days left to sign in and to invite family and friends to join with you. Experiencing GoEco! together is much more effective and it’s much more fun!
