Social Norms and Energy Conservation (2011, background): “As of the end of 2010, OPOWER had contracts to run programs at 47 utilities in 21 states, including six of the largest ten utilities in the U.S.”
The Impact of State Level Building Codes on Residential Electricity Consumption (2011, background): “Gillingham et al. (2006) estimate U. S. cumulative savings from efﬁciency policies and programs, but exclusive of building energy codes.”
Nudging Energy Efficiency Behavior: The Role of Information Labels (2014, unknown): “With limited or otherwise imperfect information about the potential benefits and costs of energy-efficient choices, households may not be eager to opt for products that are more energy efficient but also more costly at the time of purchase.”
Energy Efficiency: Economics and Policy (2010, background): “Gibbons and Gwin (2004) provide a good historic account of the major ECE measures taken, whereas Gillingham et al. (2006) carry out a retrospective analysis of the measures applied in the USA.”
The role of information for energy efficiency in the residential sector (2015, unknown): “Up to now, most empirical evidence had focused on the assessment of the cost-efficiency of conventional policies (Gillingham et al., 2006; Ürge-Vorsatz and Novikova, 2008) with ex-ante models that estimated and compared the expected results of each instrument.”
Reducing energy demand: A review of issues, challenges and approaches (2015, background): “The impact of these policies is hard to assess, but several studies indicate that they can be cost-effective [59,60].”
Pro-environmental Households and Energy Efficiency in Spain (2015, unknown): “Levinson and Niemann 2004; Maruejols and Young 2011; and Gillingham et al. 2012). Moreover, as Fig. 1 indicates, space heating is the largest component of residential energy consumption in industrialized (as well as developing) countries and therefore a potentially important source of energy savings”

Split Incentives in Residential Energy Consumption (2012, background): “…qualitatively discussed in a variety of studies elucidating the potential market failures that may impede investments in improving residential energy efﬁciency (Fisher and Rothkopf 1989, Jaffe and Stavins 1994, Nadel 2002, Gillingham, Newell, and Palmer 2006, Gillingham, Newell, and Palmer 2009).”
