Industrial end-use planning methodology (INDEPTH): Demonstration of design: Volume 3, Equipment models: Interim report
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 equipment models in this volume simulate the purchase, use, and retirement of various types of energy-consuming equipment throughout the industrial sector. They assess the effects of utility incentives on the market penetration of specific electrotechnologies and thus on electricity use. The equipment modeled included motors, lighting, chillers, dryers, space conditioning, and furnaces for all two-digit manufacturing industries.
