SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES FOR ANALYZING UTILITY USAGE WITH LOAD DURATION CURVES

摘要

Systems, methods, and devices for regulating usage of at least one utility by a utility consuming system. One aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method for regulating usage of at least one utility by a utility consuming system having a plurality of utility consuming segments. The method includes: generating a load duration curve (LDC); selecting a portion of the LDC to be analyzed; generating an associated duration chart (ADC) that is indicative of one or more associated duration parameters relating to the selected portion of the LDC; and modifying usage of the utility by at least one of the utility consuming segments based, at least in part, upon the one or more associated duration parameters indicated in the first ADC.
