Intelliekon – Sustainable energy consumption by households based on intelligent meter, communication and rate systems
In spite of an over 30-year history with energy-saving campaigns, energy consumption in households has not dropped over the years, but increased.
Feedback tools, by means of which consumers became familiar with their energy consumption in detail, were developed and tested in Intelliekon.
The project examined whether prompt and regular feedback on energy consumption represents suitable knowledge for getting consumers to take appropriate action and how high the energy savings related to this feedback are.
