12. Demand Side Management Consumption Control: More efficient lamps More efficient motors More efficient appliances Controls (occupancy sensors, etc.)

13. Demand Side Management Demand Control: Manual (timers, management) Automated (EMS, BAS, PC) Loads: Sheddable Non-sheddable S: F.25.13 p.1157

14. Utility Incentives: Time of Day Rates: load shifting Demand Reduction Rebates: demand limiting Equipment Rebates: consumption reduction Contract Renegotiation: cost reduction Demand Side Management UM Hospital, Ann Arbor MI AKA Associates, 1988

20. Utility Rate Structures Block Rate $X 1 for first Y 1 kwh $X 2 for next Y 2 kwh … Energy Charge $X per kwh

21. Utility Rate Structures Ratchet Clause Charge to insure capacity based on previous peak demand PEAK DEMAND AVG DEMAND

22. Utility Rate Structures Time of Day Rates $X 1 /kwh for on peak hours $X 2 /kwh for off peak hours … Uninterruptible Power Supply

23. Example Large General Service Rate $11.25/month service connection Demand charge: $9.72/kw Energy charge:$0.0682/kwh first 200 kwh $0.0632/kwh for remainder Ratchet clause: 11 month
