Can incentives to increase electricity use reduce the cost of integrating renewable resources?

Andersen, Laura Mørch; Gårn Hansen, Lars; Lynge … - 2019

We report results from a large field experiment that with a few hours prior notice provided Danish residential consumers with dynamic price and environmental signals aimed at causing them to shift their consumption either into or away from certain hours of the day. The same marginal price signal...

Social norms and energy conservation beyond the US

Andor, Mark Andreas; Gerster, Andreas; Peters, Jörg; … - 2017

The seminal studies by Allcott and Mullainathan (2010), Allcott (2011), and Allcott and Rogers (2014) suggest that social comparison-based home energy reports (HER) are a cost-effective non-price intervention to stimulate energy conservation. The present paper demonstrates the context-dependency...
