Load Side Demand Management

“Actions that influence the quantity or patterns of use of energy employed by end users”

Demand management involves all energy management activities that a business employs independent of or stemming from regulatory measures to either reduce the amount of energy they use or use it more efficiently at off peak times.

• End-user energy efficiency and conservation measures
• Load shifting and curtailment (link to feasibility study/standby Generator/load shed)
• Energy contracts that encourage and are tailored to demand management measures
• Use of standby power generation or green energy options (i.e. solar water heating)
• Examples: Mechanical demand control tools, Voltage conversions, Keeping constant demand and multi sites mergers are practical examples of how to improve efficiency

Demand management has several benefits for your business:

• Reduced the impact of energy price increases to a business
• More cost effective utilisation of energy infrastructure
• A reduction in the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from your business
• Improved productivity through more efficient use of your energy resources
