Households’ Willingness to Curtail Electricity Usage During Winter Shortages –– A Field Experiment Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Switzerland Russia's war on Ukraine has triggered a global energy crisis, raising concerns over future price shocks and shortages. This study reports on a field experiment examining households’ willingness to reduce heat pump usage in response to high electricity prices during future shortages. In collaboration with a Swiss energy provider, residential customers with heat pumps participated in an incentivized experiment involving weekly price signals. Results showed a 13.7% reduction in heat pump electricity consumption on treated days. Energy savings were 9% during low-price periods and 15% during high-price periods. The findings highlight the potential benefits of price-based policies to complement information campaigns in addressing short-term energy shortages. | |
