Analysis of energy apps from Apple App store, assessing inclusion of gamification and behavioral constructs.

The raw data sources are American Housing Survey National datasets from 2001 to 2015 (file location was D:/Dissertation1/Data/National). An example of sub-folder is "AHS 2001 National PUF v1.1 CSV" and under this folder there are multiple .csv files (e.g. "thoushld.csv"). I added iPhthon formatted R file for data cleaning and its final outcome is uploaded as "dataall_panel_180204.csv".

The attached data files contain 1. Energy Audit data for three retailers (3x files, filenames "Significant Energy Users"), which provide energy use data for all three retailers involved in the study. These were undertaken using the SEAI small business energy audit spreadsheet template. They also include calculations which were performed to quantify energy efficiency opportunities for discussion with retailers in follow up interviews. 2. Energy Efficiency Opportuninties worksheets (3x files, filenames "EE Opportunities worksheet") - which shows the printed worksheet of summarised energy use and energy efficiency opportunities presented to and discussed with each retailer during follow up interviews. 3. Retailer topic guide write up sheets (1x file) - write up of each interview with the three retailers involved with the study (2x interviews per retailer).
