Definitions

  • Present electricity demand: Electrical energy consumed by all inhabitants at the time of the site visit.
  • Assessed electricity demand: The amount of electricity that customers state they would use if there was electricity at this moment. It can be assessed by conducting surveys on site.
  • (Future) effective electricity demand: The demand that is backed by financial resources and can actually be paid by the consumer (influenced by WTP and ATP).
  • Electrical load profiles: The electrical load on a certain time axis, which varies according to customer type, temperature and seasonal effects. An average daily load profile gives insights on the peak load which is required for the load forecasting and plant sizing and the energy demand in kWh to forecast demand and revenues.
