基于社区的行为干预可以减少家庭能源使用吗？我们报告了正在进行的节能匹配案例和对照现场实验的初始数据。使用监控设备测量 175 个家庭的家庭能源使用情况，记录电力消耗和温度。治疗组和对照组的参与者的房屋隔热效果得到了改善。治疗组的行为干预始于由社区环保组织主持的 2 小时节能研讨会。与估计的反事实相比，我们发现了一些在分析期间电力减少的证据，但没有证据表明空间加热或基本负载功率减少。数据与持续 3 个月以上的实质性效果一致，但由于差异较大，无法自信地推断这一点。我们探讨了这一发现的政策含义：相对适度的社区干预可能对能源使用产生重大影响。
Can community-based behavioural intervention reduce energy use in the home? We report on initial data from an ongoing matched case and control field experiment on energy saving. Household energy use in 175 households is measured using monitoring equipment, recording electrical power consumption and temperature. Participants in treatment and control groups received improvements to the thermal insulation of their homes. A behavioural intervention in the treatment group began with a 2 hour workshop on energy saving led by a community-based environmental group. We find some evidence of reductions in electrical power over the period of analysis, compared to the estimated counterfactual, but no evidence of reduced spatial heating or baseload power. The data are consistent with a substantial effect lasting over 3 months, although this cannot be inferred with confidence because of high variance. We explore the policy implications of the finding that a relatively modest level of community intervention has potentially substantial impact on energy use.
