Abstract
Demand-Side Management (DSM) is a systematic action to increase energy efficiency at the end-user of energy. An elaboration is given of a purposive framework of concepts to develop DSM-programs for buildings. The concepts are efficiency strategy, a method to analyze the energy consumption in buildings, and a strategy to communicate with target groups. Measures to improve the energy efficiency can be subdivided into several groups, f.e. the choice of the system, the techniques used to manage the system, and the use of renewable energy. In the built environment several groups of general energy applications can be distinguished with regard to their function: lighting, climate control (ventilation, heating), cooking, washing. The coupling of the energy demand of a building and the activities in a building is made by defining the use of the rooms and spaces. For every type of space an energy function profile is outlined, which can be used to standardize the energy function demand. By means of the communication strategy starting points to communicate with target groups are given. Defining the service life of a building makes it possible to determine which target groups in what phase for certain types of measures are important and which other actuators

A large number of very different target groups and actuators makes it necessary to realize thorough communication for the succes of the DSM activities. The appendices `Energy function climate control`, Energy function lighting`, and `Energy function profiles of spaces` are published in three separate volumes of which separate abstracts have been prepared. 3 figs., 19 figs., 6 refs.}
