  1. Demand Response and Kootenai Electric Shawn Dolan, P.E Manager of Engineering

  2. About Kootenai Electric • Kootenai Electric is Located in Northern Idaho • It is a Nonprofit Electric Cooperative • It Serves 25,000 Meters • Peak Load is 111,000 MW • Has Been Involved in Demand Response Since 2008

  3. Demand Response Programs • Was Part of Bonneville Power Administration's Peak Project – Demand Response Pilot in 2008-2010. • Involved Residential Thermostat and Water Heater Control • Presently Implementing Demand Response by Voltage Control System Wide.

  4. Conservation Approach to Demand Reduction

  5. Alternate Approach - Load Profile Flattening

  6. Importance of Measurement and Baselines Without Proper Testing and Baseline Comparison You Don’t Know How Much You are Affecting Your Load Profile! • For Thermostat and Water Heater Control We Instrumented the Circuits in Each Home Being Controlled to Determine the Impact. • For Voltage Control System, Baseline Days During the Same Month with the Same Temperature and Weather Were Compared Against the Control Day.

  7. Example of Demand Reduction by Voltage Control Test
