DSMore Peak Clipping / Time of Use
The Peak Clipping and Time of Use (TOU) section of the Program Input worksheet allows you to define interruptible load DSM programs, such as AC cycling, or define TOU rate schedules. Peak Clipping fields include the number of hours to interrupt per month, load reductions, and avoided capacity values for the interruptions. TOU fields include the rates, as well as the load impacts of the rates.
