N2  - The global energy transition is a complex challenge that re-
quires innovative research approaches. Understanding individual decision-
making is crucial, as local investment decisions and the operation of such
acquired assets will shape the future energy system. Agent-based models
(ABMs) are widely used to simulate individual energy behaviors and in-
teractions. In this paper, we adopt a Consumer Choice Framework[1]—a
metamodel that provides an abstract reference architecture for integrat-
ing psychological, social, and economic dimensions of energy behaviors.
This metamodel is designed to foster interdisciplinary collaboration by
offering a shared language across research domains. We validate it by
mapping it to three existing ABMs, demonstrating its value as a shared
reference framework.
