Abstract
Reducing energy consumption is a common research topic in the United States because of its importance in environmental, health, and industrial fields. In this project, we aim to reduce global energy consumption for the Greater Boston Area by encouraging users to make more energy-efficient travel plans. We believe that if users can be provided with energy-efficient routes, alongside differing mode options and departure time, and provided the proper incentive in the form of rewards, they will be willing to modify their plans in order to obtain them. Therefore, we have created an interface on Android where users can plans trips, view past trips, and earn rewards.
