‘DayOut’ An app designed to encourage families to save energy, through the use of game mechanics. Campaign by Sponsored by
Why? “The younger generation do not understand the value of saving energy” “Children do not gain any incentives for saving energy” “As technology and social media progresses it is harder to keep the family together” Clare Pinches, 30, Mother of 2

How it works
Technology
The campaign has been designed to show families the importance of energy saving and how much they waste.
‘DayOut’ calculates your energy score by working out how many people are in the house and using a smart meter to record appliances used. The house hold with the lowest score on average at the end of the campaign will win a prize
The app is designed to work alongside a smart meter fitted into the users home.
Families with Children
Families compete against other households to gain incentives, such as going to events together/days out.
PLAY & WIN
This smart meter will measure the household and give the family an energy score in percentages, which are sent to the app.
Game Mechanics Spinning is a game aspect to engage children to win or lose derived from user research. The family will get spins if they complete challenges and have the lowest score at the end of each day.
TOGETHER
Challenges can be sent out by family members to each other, engaging and connecting them. Family also get notifications to emphasise the loss or gain from an event or discount.
Experience Prototyping “Make the competition with other households not family rivalry” “Have the app start to filter suggested content based on previous events and challenges used” Getting back from work.
Making a cup of tea to unwind.
