Electrical Demand-Side Management (DSM)
Course Description
Demand Side Management involves steps taken by the customer on their meter to change and regulate the amount or timing of energy consumption. Power supply utilities offer a variety of measures that can reduce energy consumption and consumer energy expenses. Electricity DSM strategies have the goal of maximizing end-use efficiency to avoid or postpone the construction of new generating plants. There are various opportunities and techniques available for reducing energy consumption. These include efficient lighting, variable speed drives, solar hot water systems etc. These technologies reduce demand, help in lowering high peak prices and also reduce greenhouse gas emissions due to less stress on generating plants. Load Response Programs also play effective role in DSM. These include switching off or reschedule of nonessential and non-critical loads by the end users in response to the request of the utilities. This can lead to save the system network from exceeding its peak rating. Demand-side management (DSM) has been traditionally seen as a means of reducing peak electricity demand so that utilities can delay building further capacity. In fact, by reducing the overall load on an electricity network, DSM has various beneficial effects, including mitigating electrical system emergencies, reducing the number of blackouts and increasing system reliability. Possible benefits can also include reducing dependency on expensive imports of fuel, reducing energy prices, and reducing harmful emissions to the environment. Finally, DSM has a major role to play in deferring high investments in generation, transmission and distribution networks. Thus DSM applied to electricity systems provides significant economic, reliability and environmental benefits. The motivation behind the implementation of DSM is obviously different for the various parties involved. Thus for utility companies, the reduction or shift of a customer's energy demand could mean avoiding or delaying building additional generating capacity. In some situations, this would avoid or defer energy price increases that would otherwise be imposed on customers to help finance new investments in system capacity. For customers, DSM offers the opportunity to reduce their energy bill through efficiency and conservation measures. In the case of industrial customers, this would translate to lower production costs and a more competitive product. For domestic customers it means that they would save money that could be spent on other household commodities. This 5 seminar covers “Electrical demand-side management” or EDSM, as applied to energy efficiency measures that modify or reduce end-users’ energy demand. This has traditionally been applied to electricity loads but is also used for changes that can be made to demands for all types of energy. The benefits for the energy user are reduced energy costs for a given output (production level or other measure of activity). For the energy provider, the benefit is a better use of its supply capacity.
