Abstract

We propose a method for residential end-use load analysis in developing countries. The times of use of home appliances were established by conducting face-to-face surveys, from which typical hourly load curves are obtained. For N. Cyprus, where the winter peak is the critical load, electrical heating of water and space is the dominant activity. DSM measures can reduce the peak by approximately 53 MW at the expense of US$12 million. A capital investment of $100 million for a new power plant may be deferred for 20 years.
