The INDEPTH industrial planning methodology will enable utilities to forecast service area electricity demand. The system allows the user to develop energy forecasts for the whole industrial sector, to examine industries most important to the service area, and to study uses of electricity that are of interest in demand-side management programs. The process models forecast the future electricity consumption of a given industry by simulating the electricity-consuming technologies and production processes in that industry. The industry processes modeled were textiles, pulp and paper, chloralkali, petroleum, glass, foundry, metals fabrication, and automotive stamping.
