Title
The Impact of Informational Feedback on Energy Consumption - A Survey of the Experimental Evidence
Description
A 32-page report that reviews past experiments and pilot projects to evaluate the effect of in-home displays (IHDs) on energy consumption. Concludes that consumers who actively use IHDs reduce consumption by seven percent on average. (Even more if the IHD is combined with a prepayment program. Does not, however, address the issue of consumer fatigue (getting tired of actively monitoring an IHD).
