Author(s) : REDDY T. A., NORFORD L. K., KEMPTON W.

Type of article: Article

Summary

After providing a brief overview of different techniques by which electric peaks can be shaved in single residences, the authors have specifically addressed strategies which involve intelligent use of the thermal mass of the building. Practical aspects of the implementation strategies involving the heat capacity of the building are discussed, both in terms of immediate and long-range developments of thermostatic controls.
