Workshop proceedings: planning and assessment of load management

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6883100
Load Management within the context of the seminar included all utility programs that either directly or indirectly are intended to modify customer usage patterns principally in the direction of reducing system peak load and shifting consumption from peak to off-peak periods. Purpose of the seminar was to promote an active exchange of information among technical analysts at electric utilities and regulatory commissions on recent advances in analytical techniques directed at planning and assessing load management programs. A secondary purpose was to identify new areas of research that need to be addressed by EPRI. The seminar featured presentations by leading researchers and practitioners in a multidisciplinary approach to such issues as customer attitudes and acceptance, forecasting system load shape impact, implementation, and hardware research. In addition to the formal presentations, the seminar featured several small-group discussion sessions on selected topics.
