CalPlug - Behavioral Interactions and Feedback

The proposed project will involve conducting a thorough review of prior results for behavioral intervention experiments for residential customers. The review will compare the effectiveness of various techniques, including how energy data is presented and which in‐home devices are used. The emphasis will be on lessons learned, in terms of feedback mechanisms, how the program was rolled out, and how its effectiveness was monitored and assessed. Particular attention would be paid to results suggesting interventions for low‐income households, and specific barriers to their effectiveness.
