In 1985, the City of San Francisco initiated a tenant incentive demonstration project in public housing to stimulate energy conservation behavior among its tenants. The goals of the incentive demonstration project were to demonstrate energy savings and to measure the effectiveness of financial incentives in public housing. Two buildings for the elderly were selected to participate in the program (1880 Pine and 350 Ellis). Energy conservation workshops were held at both buildings; however, only the tenants at 1880 Pine received the incentives. We present the findings of a survey conducted among a sample of tenants at each of these buildings. 8 refs., 39 figs., 12 tabs.
