A method includes receiving data associated with time periods that types of electrical devices are used at a metered location (105 in Figure 1) and storing the data in a database (204 in Figure 2), associating demographic data with the metered location and storing the associated demographic data in the database (202 in Figure 2), defining a demographic type associated with the metered location, processing the data associated with the time periods that the types of electrical devices are used at the metered location and the demographic data associated with the metered location to define time periods that types of electrical devices are used by demographic types similar to the demographic type associated with the metered location, and identifying an alternative time period that at least one electrical device of the types of electrical devices may be used. A system for analyzing electrical usage data is also provided.
