ABSTRACT
The main objective of implementing Demand Side
Management (DSM) in power systems is to change the utility's
load shape - i.e. changes in the time pattern and magnitude of
utility's load. Changing the load shape as a result of demand side
activities could change the peak load, base load andor energy
demand. Those three variables have to be explicitly modeled into
the load curve for properly representing the effects of demand side
management. The impact of DSM will be manifested as higher or
lower reliability levels. This paper presents an efficient technique
to model the system load such that the impact of demand side
management on the power system can be easily and accurately
evaluated. The proposed technique to model the load duration
curve will facilitate the representation of DSM impacts on loss-ofload probability, energy not served and energy consumption. This
will provide an analytical method to study the impact of DSM on
capacity requirements. So far iterative methods have been applied
to study these impacts. The proposed analytical method results in
a faster solution with higher accuracy. It takes only 18 seconds on
an 80486 PC to solve each case study involving different peak and
base loads, and energy use.
Keywords: Capacity expansion planning, demand side
management, load shape impacts, load duration curve, loss-of-load
probability, energy not served.
1.0 Introduction
In the era of load growth and increasing constraints on new
and existing generation capacity, Demand Side Management
(DSM) options are being considered all over the world as possible
bridges between these two apparently conflicting requirements.
The high variability of load from one day to another, and from one
hour to the next, may provide significant opportunities for demand
side management. DSM provides a workable solution to some of
the major problems confronting the electric utility today. There is
a great deal of uncertainty in future demand, fuel prices,
construction cost, availability and cost of power from other
utilities, independent power producers, and the regulatory

The equation (1) above is a direct mathematical representation of ILDC in terms of peak load, base load and total energy.
This has been named the "VPI model".
This model
mathematically represents the amount of time (normalized) a
certain level of load is present. See appendix A for the derivation
of the model.

From Table 3, one can see that total energy under the VPI
model is closer to the actual data than total energy of WASP,
which is widely used as a reference. In Table 4, the LOLP values
computed using four different models are shown. These include
the cumulant method which provides a direct representation of
LOLP without the convolution process. The cumulant method is

This model is not only related to the peak load, but also
to the base load and the energy. This results in a more
realistic as well as comprehensive reflection of DSM
impacts.
This model also provides a direct method to study the
load factor impacts.
