Therefore, this research aimed to identify and analyze the factors that influence the population of the city of Belém, in Pará, Brazil, in the acquisition of intelligent equipment to adapt their homes. For this, an online survey was applied with a sample of 137 residents of the city under study. It was noticed that the general profile of those who use it is composed of people who are often involved with using the internet for fun or leisure and occasionally dedicate time to renovations or repairs in their homes, and the main motivator for obtaining these technologies is the comfort and ease that these devices generate for everyday life, in addition to the possibility of having access to entertainment in an easier way. The profile of those who do not use it is also formed, mostly, by people who are frequently involved with the use of the internet, but they dedicate a greater amount of time to the development of their careers, in addition to never getting involved with repairs in their homes. The generator of disinterest for this group is the lack of initial capital to invest in the purchase of devices, as they have a high value, and the lack of knowledge about them. The equipment used by the participants was not acquired with the purpose of energy saving, even though the vast majority believe in achieving sustainability through them. In addition, the majority stated that they would use the technologies if there was some type of bonus for the energy savings generated by them, which is why the creation of government incentives was proposed to help increase the use of these technologies.PPGTEC - Desenvolvimento sustentável
