The German ENERGISE living labs were rolled out by the LMU ENERGISE team to 40 participant households over the course of eight months from August 2018 to April 2019 in the Oberland region of Bavaria. During that time, over the course of a number of interviews and surveys households in and around the towns of Weilheim (ELL1) and Murnau (ELL2) were asked to do a thorough examination of their practices in the areas of heating and laundry with a specific focus on trying to encourage households to reduce the energy use associated with those practices by means of finding sufficiency focused strategies to enable them to heat less and launder less.
