Temperature adjustments and energy use
Intervention · Energy Efficiency
Intervention Description
Thermostats in office buildings were adjusted and changes to office temperatures were observed. Treatments involving small adjustments (decreases of 1°C) from the pre-intervention average temperature led to greater post-intervention reductions than large adjusments (deecreases of 2°C).
