Information campaigns for residential energy conservation

چکیده

This paper evaluates an intervention that randomized information letters about energy efficient investments and behaviors among 120,000 customers of two utilities in Germany. We find conservation effects differ considerably between both utilities, ranging from a precisely estimated zero effect to ?1.4%. By contrast, we do not detect significant framing presenting savings monetary or ecological terms. Based on random causal forest methods, show the heterogeneity across cannot be explained by socio-demographic characteristics. Our results demonstrate importance site-specific factors for effectiveness campaigns, which has crucial implications targeting ability infer population-wide sizes pilot studies.

Effective energy consumption parameters in residential buildings using Building Information Modeling

Building information modeling can help in predicting the energy efficiency in future based on dynamic patterns obtained by visualization of data. The aim of this study was to investigate the effective parameters of energy consumption using BIM technology which can evaluate the buildings energy performance. First, three forms of general states in the building were modeled to evaluate the propose...
