Information Strategies and Energy Conservation Behavior: A Meta-Analysis of Experimental Studies from 1975 to 2012 (2013, positive): “According to norm activation theory, changes in behavior occur when a person is aware of an issue and thinks he can influence it (Fischer, 2008; Schwartz, 1977; Vining and Ebreo, 2002).”
Demand Response From Household Customers: Experiences From a Pilot Study in Norway (2011, background): “According to [20], habitual behavior is functional because it saves us the time and effort of decision-making on issues that”
The design of eco-feedback technology (2010, background): “The goals are to: ( We also looked at the papers mentioned in three well-known surveys of energy feedback studies [1, 12, 15].”
Heterogeneous treatment effects and mechanisms in information-based environmental policies: Evidence from a large-scale field experiment (2013, background): “4 Studies on social comparisons without pro-social messages, however, have found no effect (see, for example, the review by Fischer, 2008), suggesting that mixing both types of messages may be necessary.”
The ECO data set and the performance of non-intrusive load monitoring algorithms (2014, background): “In particular, feedback has shown to be effective when it is detailed and provided in a timely manner, it is tailored to individual households and it contains information on the consumption of individual appliances [2, 10, 12].”
The influences of financial and non-financial factors on energy-saving behaviour: A field experiment in Japan (2013, background): “Fischer (2008) reviews a considerable number of feedback studies.”
Rank And Response: A Field Experiment On Peer Information And Water Use Behavior (2017, background): “11Schultz et al. (2007), p. 430 5 documented in some interventions focused on social rank, but there is a relative shortage of experimental evidence on the e ect (Fischer, 2008).”
Standby Consumption in Households Analyzed With a Practice Theory Approach (2009, background): “Many experiments are being conducted on different ways to provide consumers with feedback on their electricity consumption (Fischer 2008); the so-called “informative bill” is the most widely established in Denmark.”
Pay-per-use business models as a driver for sustainable consumption: Evidence from the case of HOMIE (2018, background): “Past research has demonstrated the effects of feedback via energy management systems on households’ energy consumption (e.g. Abrahamse et al., 2005; Fischer, 2008; Kobus et al., 2015).”
Energy consumption feedback in perspective: integrating Australian data to meta-analyses on in-home displays (2012, methodology): “The meta-analysis by Fischer (2008) finds that there is no clear indication that long-term projects provide higher (initial) savings than short term ones.”
The role of information for energy efficiency in the residential sector (2015, neutral): “Fischer (2008) updated the review of Abrahamse et al. (2005) and Darby (2006) and added 24 more studies carried out between 1987 and 2006.”
Effects of feedback on residential electricity demand: Findings from a field trial in Austria (2013, background): “The reviews recognize that the feedback medium and the way the information is presented to the consumer matters (Fischer, 2008).”
Engaging with energy reduction : does a climate change frame have the potential for achieving broader sustainable behaviour? (2014, background): “Empirical investigations of the effectiveness of engaging people with energy reductions have found little effect of financial motives however (Abrahamse et al., 2005; Fischer, 2008; Hutton, Mauser, Filiatrault, & Ahtola, 1986).”
