A representative sample of South Bombay domestic consumers was surveyed to obtain data regarding their electricity consumption, lighting load patterns, and several social and architectural attributes. We examine the relation between electricity consumption and architectural and social attributes...

Metropolitan areas in developing countries have become centres for concentrated electricity demand. We present here an analysis of the relation between weather variables and peak loads in the Delhi system. A methodology for forecasting peak loads using this model is outlined.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine potential demand side management (DSM) programs in terms of their impacts to the overall economy in Thailand. Design/methodology/approach – A multi‐sector computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of Thailand has been developed to...

This study analyses energy system development and the associated greenhouse gas emissions in Thailand under a reference case and three different carbon tax scenarios during 2013-2050 using a bottom-up cost-minimizing energy system model based on the Asia-Pacific Integrated Assessment Model...

In this paper, the implications of CO2 emission mitigation constraints in the power sector planning in Indonesia are examined using a long term integrated resource planning model. An approach is developed to assess the contributions of supply- and demand-side effects to the changes in CO2, SO2...

We examine implications of electric cooking as a demand-side management (DSM) option for power development plans, as well as emission of pollutants, for the predominantly hydroelectric utility of Nepal. Options considered include seasonal and year-round electric cooking with high- and...
