Considering the vital role of the employees, the adoption of energy-specific related behaviour in a working environment depends largely on their real engagement. Even then, while the new adoption of energy efficiency measures may come naturally at first and may be regarded with interest and motivation, the question remains about its real lasting effects after the intervention ends. In this regard, the following work details the experience of employees in an office-based environment when using an energy-aware smart IoT device. Moreover, it analyses the lasting effect of the formed green-behaviour that the intervention brought even beyond the end of the study. Finally, it provides evidence on the learning process about energy practices at the workplace and how this acquired habit can be brought to external contexts such as private settings.}, booktitle = {In 2020 5th {International} {Conference} on {Smart} and {Sustainable} {Technologies} ({SpliTech})}, publisher = {IEEE Xplore}, author = {Casado-Mansilla, Diego and Irizar Arrieta, Ane and Solabarrieta Roman, Mikel and Manterola Lasa, Aratz and Kamara-Esteban, Oihane and Tsolakis, Apostolos and Krinidis, Stelios and Tzovaras, Dimitrios and Borges, Cruz E. and L\xf3pez de Ipi\xf1a, Diego}, month = sep, year = {2020}, keywords = {Behaviour change, Energy-efficiency, GreenSoul, IoT, Persuasive Technology}, pages = {1--6}, } ']
