Highlights

We conduct a meta-analysis of information-based energy conservation experiments; analyze 156 published trials and 524,479 study subjects from 1975 to 2012; On average, individuals in the experiments reduced electricity consumption by 7.4%; Individualized feedback via audits and consulting results in the largest reductions. Pecuniary feedback and incentives lead to a relative increase in energy usage.
