Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research focuses on “Denki-Kakeibo,” which provides a visualization of energy consumption as a free service on the TEPCO home page aimed at measuring its energy-saving behavior-inducing effect. The results of the analysis showed that consumers who registered with Denki-Kakeibo were highly interested in environmental issues and were generally making an effort to reduce energy consumption.Approximately 30% of registrants managed to keep energy conservation in mind after registration. However, among them, not all registrants could realize energy reduction. Only 19% of registrants could reduce energy consumption, and it can be concluded that the effort associated with Denki-Kakeibo is restrictive. On the other hand, it is very important to note that, as a result of this research, a majority of registrants who looked into Denki-Kakeibo carefully could reduce energy consumption; therefore, a certain level of energy-saving behavior-promotion effect can be expected from it.
