Do Residential Customers Respond to Hourly Prices? Evidence from a Dynamic Pricing Experiment
基于哥伦比亚特区家庭动态定价实验，研究小时电价信号与四倍时长等效电价信号对需求减少的影响是否不同。
This paper uses the results of a dynamic pricing experiment for households in the District of Columbia to determine whether the reduction in demand associated with an hourly price signal is economically different from the demand reduction associated with an equivalent price signal that is four times longer in duration. For both regular and all-electric customers, the percentage demand reduction associated with a given percentage increase in the hourly price is approximately equal to the percentage demand reduction associated with the same percentage price increase of a much longer duration.
