Abstract

The potential for reducing electricity peak load within the industrial sector in Jordan by load management is estimated to be 22.2 MW (N. J. Rabadi, M. A. Alsaad and A. Alzubi, The potential and strategies for demand-side management within the industrial sector in Jordan—I. Energy Convers. Mgmt 32, 000 (1991); Ref. [1]). This paper discusses the different load management strategies appropriate for Jordan to achieve this potential. A cost/benefit analysis which considers the consumer, the utilities, and the country at large is presented. The expected annual savings that the country can achieve, if the load management program discussed here is successfully implemented, is estimated to be approx. JD 3.6 million (1990 JD values.)
