The massive increase in Internet data traffic caused by video-streaming applications has quickly raised energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions (CO2). Therefore, there is a certain amount of research effort for lowering energy consumption related to streaming. In this paper, we first provide an overview of the studies measuring the energy consumed by the elements of the video streaming chain and then propose an HBBTv - based architecture for reducing the energy consumption based on the user behaviour in a Smart Home (SH) environment. The architecture is discussed in terms of sustainability for the end user's Quality of Experience (QoE).
