KEY RESEARCH QUESTIONS
- What is the causal impact of customer feedback from high frequency electricity consumption measurements?
Using the data from smart meters and Customer Access Devices (CADs) which will detect up to 12 appliances from a single stream of energy data. This will allow us to measure changes in energy consumption and analyse improvements in the relationship between customer and energy company. - How do we measure the wider potential impact of customer feedback?
We will use results to run a UK level energy model that will allow for an extrapolation of the RCT result and lead to advice for policy-makers.
