Abstract

The Home Energy Conservation Support Program in this study was developed by authors, available on the internet. This program was designed to promote residential energy conservation by encouraging family communication and rivalry against other families, and to get their energy consumption data sustainably for analysis. This paper describes the results of the program’s performance evaluation through its implementation.
