OSTI ID:6516211
This paper describes the construction and validation of the residential hourly and peak demand model and investigates the accuracy of the model by comparing the model's predictions with utility data. The first section provides an overview of the model structure and describes the sources of data and the adjustments needed for a specific utility service area. It is followed by a section on model validation in which a comparison is made between the results of the model and the residential loads in the Detroit Edison service area. The conclusions of the study are presented in the final section.
