文摘

We conduct a natural field experiment on incentives for fuel-efficient driving. A monetary and a tangible non-monetary reward for eco-driving are compared. The non-monetary reward results in an average reduction of fuel consumption of 5%. There is only a small reduction effect in the equivalent monetary reward treatment. Emphasis of fun, emotional responses and frequency of recalling might play a role.
