The costs of constructing and operating a new capacity generation unit are increasing everyday as well as Transmission and distribution and land issues for new generation plants, which force the utilities to search for another alternatives without any additional constraints on customers comfort level or quality of delivered product. De can be defined as the selection, planning, and implementation of measures intended to have an influence on the demand or customer-side of the electric meter, either caused directly or stimulated indirectly by the utility. DSM programs are peak clipping, Valley filling, Load shifting, Load building, energy conservation and flexible load shape. The main Target of this paper is to show the relation between DSM and Load Forecasting. Moreover, it highlights on the effect of applying DSM on Forecasted demands and how this affects the planning strategies for utility companies.

Application of load scheduling optimization is investigated during scheduled power outages, for residential consumer in India. The specific load shifting approaches explored include a day ahead predicted load schedule which is generated by performing a DSM referring to the forecasted day ahead outage. Whereas in reality the predicted may not match the actual outage, thus in these cases a fuzzy logic rule base is referred on real time basis to take corrective action & reach the best optimal load schedule possible to attain the lowest cost. The load types modeled include passive loads and schedulable, i.e. typically heavy loads. It is found that this multi-level DSM schemes show excellent benefits to the consumer. The maximum diesel savings for the consumer due to load shifting can be approximately ranging from 45% to as high as 75% for a flat-tariff grid. The study also showed that the actual savings potential depends on the timing of power outage, duration and the specific load characteristics.展开更多
