“…Finally, we conducted the third survey for a random sample of 717 households in the area to investigate the external validity of our experimental sample. Columns 1,2,and 3 of Table 1 present the summary statistics of demographic variables and preexperiment consumption data by treatment group. A comparison across control and treatment groups indicates statistical balance in observables because of random assignment of the groups.…”

Moral Suasion and Economic Incentives: Field Experimental Evidence from Energy Demand

Firms and governments often use moral suasion and economic incentives to influence intrinsic and extrinsic motivations for economic activities. To investigate persistence of such interventions, we randomly assign households to moral suasion and dynamic pricing that stimulate energy conservation during peak-demand hours. We find significant habituation and dishabituation for moral suasion-the treatment effect diminishes after repeated interventions but can be restored to the original level by a sufficient time interval between interventions. Economic incentives induce larger treatment effects, little habituation, and significant habit formation. Our results suggest moral suasion and economic incentives produce substantially different short-run and long-run policy impacts.

“…This is unlikely in our case because the moral suasion message was identical across the repeated interventions and the severity of the situation-limited electricity supply-was fairly consistent during the summer and during the winter. (2). The dependent variable is the log of household-level 30-minute interval electricity consumption.…”

“…A central question in this literature is whether providing transparent price information can induce consumers to respond to marginal incentives. 2 Our experiment deliberately gives consumers salient information on hourly marginal prices via text messages and in-home displays, and then tests their responses to different marginal prices. While marginal prices in increasing block pricing and time-varying pricing are not directly comparable, our results suggest that consumers faced with transparent price information on time-varying pricing respond to marginal prices as standard economic theory predicts.…”

“…A nivel mundial la demanda de energía ha ido aumentando progresivamente, de tal forma que a partir de 1970 hasta la actualidad se ha duplicado (Shimoda et al, 2020). Esta tendencia seguirá a menos que se tomen las medidas pertinentes para atenuar este crecimiento.…”

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo desarrollar una nueva metodología para estimar el indicador KVR (Kilómetro Vehículo Recorrido) y los consumos energéticos por tipo de transporte terrestre. Se realizaron los cálculos para la Provincia de Loja (Ecuador), para el año 2014, mediante un método de balance energético de OLADE (Organización Latinoamericana de Energía). Éste es combinado con un modelo análogo a la solución de sistemas de flujo de Hardy Cross a través de ecuaciones lineales. Se representa al sistema de trasporte como un balance energético, cuyas entradas son: el número y tipo de vehículos, consumo específico promedio de cada grupo vehicular y los despachos globales de combustible. Los resultados muestran una variación del 2% entre la energía consumida calculada y la energía total despachada. Del total de 1'123.198 BEP, 24,65% fue destinado para transporte de pasajeros y 66,18% para transporte de carga. Se concluye que la metodología es apropiada, aplicable a la realidad nacional, y replicable a otras provincias.
