The occupants of a building typically lack the independent motivation necessary to optimize their energy usage and play a key role in the control of smart building infrastructure. So, there is a need for scalable and robust frameworks that can efficiently coordinate and control building energy resource usage in the presence of confounding dynamics such as human behavior. As a candidate solution, energy social games aim at incentivizing occupants to modify their behavior in a competitive game setting so that the overall energy consumption in the building is reduced.
