Several methods of forecasting peak demand are described to assist electric utilities in choosing an appropriate modeling system, one that combines the flexibility to incorporate new developments, statistical validity to accurately replicate the past, and flexibility. Modeling methodologies include direct and single-component indirect econometric models, multicomponent indirect models, and a disaggregated physical end use model. An evaluation of these four types concludes that the limitations of the pure econometric and the physical models will increase the popularity of multicomponent indirect models, which are aggregated to project average hourly load by customer class.
