What is DSM?
DSM is universal and does not only apply to utilities,
electricity or monopolies
DSM encompasses the entire range of management
functions (planning, evaluation, implementation
and monitoring)
DSM = Large-Scale Deployment of Energy Efficient
Equipment by use of specially designed Programmes
Issues Involving the Implementation
Demand Side Management Solutions
Include: Public Benefits Programs, Rate
Schedules, Time-of-Use Rates, Power Factor
Charges, and Real-Time-Pricing
5 August 2014
Public Benefits Programs
Prior to electricity industry restructuring, utilities were responsible for a variety of programs (including DSM) that meet social
objectives. Under restructuring, funding for these programs is typically through a small surcharge ("wires charge" or "system
benefits charge") on utility bills.
Rate Schedules
Utilities can structure their rates to encourage customers to modify their pattern of energy use.
Time-of-Use Rates
Time-of-use rates involve charging higher prices for peak electricity as a way to shift demand to off-peak periods. Interruptible rates
offer discounts in exchange for a user commitment to reduce demand when requested by the utility.
Power Factor Charges
Power factor charges can be implemented to discourage commercial and industrial utility customers from partially loading their
electrical equipment, as this requires the utility to generate extra current to cover the resulting system losses.
Real-Time Pricing
Real-time pricing is where the electricity price varies continuously (or hour by hour) based on the utility's load and the different
types of power plants that have to be operated to satisfy that demand.

Technologies Used in Demand Side Management:
These energy conservation technologies are implemented to reduce total energy use.
Specific technologies include energy-efficient lighting, appliances, and building
equipment, all of which can be found on the EREN Buildings Energy Efficiency page.
For energy efficiency at industrial sites, see the EREN Industrial Energy Efficiency
page.
Load Leveling:
These technologies are used to smooth out the peaks and dips in energy demand by
reducing consumption at peak times ("peak shaving"), increasing it during off-peak times
("valley filling"), or shifting the load from peak to off-peak periods to maximize use of
efficient baseload generation and reduce the need for spinning reserves.
Load control:
Energy management control systems (EMCSs) can be used to switch electrical
equipment on or off for load leveling purposes. Some EMCSs enable direct off-site
control (by the utility) of user equipment. Typically applied to heating, cooling, ventilation,
and lighting loads, EMCSs can also be used to invoke on-site generators, thereby
reducing peak demand for grid electricity. Energy storage devices located on the
customer's side of the meter can be used to shift the timing of energy consumption

WHAT IS DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT?
Demand Side Management is the modification of
consumers demand of electricity through various
methods such as financial incentives and consumer
education
Usually the goal of DSM is to encourage the
consumers to use less energy during peak hours or to
move the time of energy use to the off-peak hours
viz. night
24
Need for DSM
Saving 1 unit of electricity at consumer end
avoids nearly 2.5 times of capacity addition
1 MW capacity addition of thermal power
requires Rs 6 crores for installation and
another Rs 3 crores for Transmission and
Distribution
25
Need for DSM ..(contd.)
Increasing energy requirement
Increasing threat of climate change and other
environmental considerations
Energy security
Lack of other supply options
Huge scope for energy efficiency measures
26
Demand is minimum
between
12 a.m. and 6 a.m.
Demand is huge between
5:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.
Peak Demand at 7.30 p.m.
Since Full Lighting load,
and other Commercial and
Domestic loads
27
Usual Load Curve of an Utility for a 24 Hour
period
Observations
The peak demand of 4,300 MW is there for
only 5-6 hours in the evening
The base demand is 3,000 MW, which is much
less than the peak demand of 4,300 MW
To meet the extra demand utility has to arrange
additional installed capacity or purchase power
at high rate
28
Observations ..(contd.)
Thus utility will always try to encourage
consumers to:
Use less energy during Peak hours (Peak
Clipping)
Shift energy use to off peak hours (Valley
Filling)
29
Therefore consumers too have
a very important role to play
for achieving the objectives of
DSM

HOW TO DO DSM?
To charge higher prices during Peak Hours
Improving the efficiency of various end uses by using energy
efficient appliances, better house keeping and reducing energy
leakages. This is important for agriculture where energy
efficiency is very low (30-50%)
Promoting use of Energy Efficient Technologies and

CONCLUSIONS
DSM is important for enabling the more efficient use of base
load capacity
It mitigates electrical system emergencies
Significant economic, system reliability and environmental
benefits
Cheap, fast way to solve electricity problems
Market DSM programmes to show potential customers their life
cycle benefits and often simple techniques for reducing demand
Power utility manages the demand for power among some or all its
customers to meet its current or future needs
Implemented either directly through utility sponsor program or through
ESCOs
In India, DSM can be achieved through:
1. Energy efficiency -- reduction of KWh of energy consumption
2. Demand load management reduction of KW of power demand
3. Displacement of demand to off peak time
Specific type of programs depend on utility objects
In the former category, programs such as awareness programs, efficient
equipment usage, rebates to customers etc.
While the latter one includes time of use tariffs, direct load control etc.
The reduction of energy demands and consumption at the customer end
can free up electricity generation, transmission and distribution capacity
The cost of saved energy can be as low as 10% of the cost of added
capacity
In addition to deferred capacity cost, support for energy efficiency at the
customer end brings utility in close contacts with its clients which result
in better service and better efficient planning process
DSM can mitigate the adverse impact of increased rates on residential,
agricultural and commercial sectors
DSM helps industries to be placed more comparatively in the recent open
market structure
DSM IN INDIA
The problems of Indian power sector can be grouped into 3 major issues:
1. Unacceptable high transmission losses
2. Huge commercial losses due to poor billing, metering, collection at
depth etc.
3. Low induced efficiency of energy used specifically in agricultural sector
The financial status of power sector can be effectively improved by
demand side management
The reasons for power utility to undertake DSM includes:
1. Improve the cash flow revenue of the utility
2. Improve the quality and reliability of power supply
3. Reduce the impact of raising tariff to the subsidized customers
4. Demand out-stepping

In Indian context the main challenges for power sector:
How to eliminate the power cuts ?
How to ensure quality power to all ?
How to meet the additional demand ?
5 August 2014
One answer which seem to be obvious:
Keep increasing the installed generating capacity
And
Increase T&D network correspondingly

But the reality is:
How much increase is techno-economically feasible?
Is there a natural limit?

DSM in Lighting
Lighting System
01. One of the best energy-saving devices is the light switch. Turn off
lights when not required.
02. Many automatic devices like dimmers, automatic timers, motion
sensors etc., wherever applicable can be used.
03. As for as possible use task lighting, which focuses light where it's
needed. Eg., A reading lamp.
04. Dirty tube lights and bulbs reflect less light and can absorb 50 percent
of the light; dust your tube lights and lamps regularly.
05. Fluorescent tube lights and CFLs convert electricity to visible light up
to 5 times more efficiently than ordinary bulbs and thus save about 70% of
electricity for the same lighting levels.
06. Replace your electricity-guzzling ordinary bulbs (incandescent lamps)
with more efficient types.
07. A 15-watt compact fluorescent bulb produces the same amount of
light as a 60-watt incandescent bulb.
5 August 2014
DSM in lighting
Reduce excessive illumination levels to standard levels using switching.
Install efficient alternatives to incandescent lighting, mercury vapor lighting,
etc. Efficacy (lumens/watt) of various technologies range from best to worst
approximately as follows: low pressure sodium, high pressure sodium, metal
halide, fluorescent, mercury vapor, incandescent.
Select ballasts and lamps carefully with high power factor and long-term
efficiency in mind.
Consider daylighting, skylights, etc.
Consider painting the walls a lighter color and using less lighting fixtures or
lower wattages.
Change exit signs from incandescent to LED.

DSM in Computer usage
Computers
Turn off your home office equipment when not in use.
2. If your computer must be left on, turn off the monitor; this device alone
uses more than half the system's energy.
3. Setting computers, monitors, and copiers to use sleep-mode when not in
use helps cut energy costs by approximately 40%.
4. Battery chargers, such as those for laptops, cell phones and digital
cameras, draw power whenever they are plugged in and are very
inefficient. Pull the plug and save.
5. Screen savers save computer screens, not energy. In fact, shutting
computers down when you are finished using them actually reduces
system wear - and saves energy.
6. Use TFT monitors instead of CRT monitors.
5 August 2014
DSM in Distribution system
Electricity Distribution System
Optimize the tariff structure with utility supplier
Schedule your operations to maintain a high load factor.
Shift loads to off-peak times if possible.
Minimize maximum demand by tripping loads through a demand controller
Stagger start-up times for equipment with large starting currents to minimize
load peaking.
Use standby electric generation equipment for on-peak high load periods.
Correct power factor to at least 0.90 under rated load conditions.
Relocate transformers close to main loads. .
Consider on-site electric generation or cogeneration.
Export power to grid if you have any surplus in your captive generation

Motors
Properly size to the load for optimum efficiency.
(High efficiency motors offer of 4 - 5% higher efficiency than standard
motors)
Use energy-efficient motors where economical.
Use synchronous motors to improve power factor.
Check alignment.
Provide proper ventilation
(For every 10
o
C increase in motor operating temperature over
recommended peak, the motor life is estimated to be halved)

1. Iron Use of thinner gauge, lower loss core steel reduces
eddy current losses. Longer core adds more steel to
the design, which reduces losses due to lower
operating flux densities.
2. Stator I

R Use of more copper and larger conductors
increases cross sectional area of stator windings.
This lowers resistance (R) of the windings and
reduces losses due to current flow (I).
3. Rotor I

R Use of larger rotor conductor bars increases size of
cross section, lowering conductor resistance (R)
and losses due to current flow (I).
4. Friction &
Windage
Use of low loss fan design reduces losses due to air
movement.
5. Stray Load

Demand Side Management is a mechanism to influence customers
CAPABILITY and WILLINGNESS to reduce electricity consumption.
Demand Side Management is a utility program aiming to fine-tune
consumers energy consumption pattern, according to the utilitys
energy production and distribution capacity.
Demand-side management(DSM) programs consist of the planning,
implementing and monitoring activities of electric utility that are
designed to encourage consumers to modify their level and pattern of
electricity usage.
92
Demand Side Management relies on a combination of using high
efficiency equipment and efficient use of electricity through good
operating practice.
Demand-side management(DSM) is the implementation of policies and
measures which serve to control, influence and generally reduce electricity
demand.
DSM aims to improve final electricity-using systems, reduce consumption,
while preserving the same level of service and comfort.
93
OBJECTIVES OF DSM
1: Reliability and Stability
DSM provides enhanced reliability to the energy system by reducing
overall demand through energy efficiency and by reducing peak demand
through dispatchable programs.
It also reduces transmission and distribution costs relative to a supply side
resource.
DSM increases diversity of energy sources.
94
OBJECTIVES OF DSM
2: Low Cost / Affordability
The cost of DSM is technology specific and varies relative to other supply
side resources.
Dispatchable DSM programs can be called when their cost is lower then
alternative market purchases.
Cost-effective resource planning can ensure that DSM is only procured up
to the point where it is cheaper than supply alternatives.
DSM can also help low-income customers reduce their energy costs.
95
Following three factors reduce energy consumption(kWh) and peak
demand (kW), however, emphasis differs
i. Energy Efficiency emphasis is on reducing overall energy
consumption and also peak demand over several years.
ii. Peak Load Management emphasis is on reducing peak demand
consistently over a season.
iii. Demand Response emphasis is on reducing peak demand for
short periods of time for a few days during the year.
96
For Promotion of various Energy Efficient / DSM methods in the state
following steps were taken:
i. National Energy Conservation Day observed on 14
th
December.
(G.o.I has enacted The Energy conservation act 2001).
Earth Hour observed by all the employees of BESCOM in offices and
their residences. Public were also requested to participate.
(Earth Hour was observed on 23
rd
March 2013 from 8.30PM to 9.30PM
by switching off all the unnecessary lights).

Management (DRUM) project, water and energy Nexus activity phase II
(WENEXA II) both conducted under the aegis of Indias Ministry of Power
(MoP) and United States International Development Agency (USAID) / India.
The DRUM project established a pilot site at Doddaballapur to help
BESCOM. Create of excellence which will serve as a model to be sealed up
and replicated else where.
Electricity used for irrigation pumps is highly inefficient with pump
efficiencies of 30% and less. However farmers are unwilling to invest in these
improvements because the present tariff regime does not provide financial
incentive to do so. Therefore BESCOM has designed and implemented an
integrated system improvement and demand side management.
107
Hence BESCOM planned an initiative called replacing inefficient irrigation
pump sets by high efficient pump sets on HVDS feeders at Doddaballapur Sub-
Division as a pilot project
M/s ENZEN Global Solutions, an ESCO was engaged for replacement of
existing IP sets in Doddaballapura on11KV feeders under USAID -
WENEXA. This ESCO Agriculture Demand Side Management model was
designed by BESCOM in association with USAID-PA Consulting.
BESCOM was able to successfully establish a system of appointing ESCO
and has been awarded with National Power Award-2009 under category
ENERGY EFFICIENCY, CONSERVATION AND DEMAND SIDE
MANAGEMENT for Agriculture Demand Side Management initiative.

What Is Demand Side Management ?
DSM is planning, implementation & monitoring of Utility activities
designed to influence consumer use of electricity in ways that will
produce desired changes in the magnitude and pattern of load either
directly caused or indirectly stimulated by the utility.

Evaluation of dsm options
As seen from the above, various identified end use
efficiency,DSM measures, offering energy and
demand saving opportunities qualify to be
assessed for supply side impact, benefits and
costs,(as cost of saved capacity and cost of saved
energy).The results relate to local utility attributes
and considerations .
These are then compared with alternative,
corresponding, supply (utility) side costs of
capacity addition and long run marginal cost of
generation.
Only those options of DSM are shortlisted, which
are cheaper than supply side costs.
To arrive at cost of saved capacity CSC,and cost
of saved energy, following relations, criteria can
be adopted.
Relations and criteria..
Capital recovery factor (CRF)
=d (1 +d)
n
/ [(1 +d)
n
- 1]
where d =utility discount rate & n =measure life
Total DSM measure cost
=initial cost [ 1 +(1/(1+d/100)
m
) +(1/(1+d/100)2
m
+ ...)
where d =utility discount rate & m =device life & the series
includes all terms where exponent is less than the measure life
Cost of saved capacity (CSC) Rs/kW or Rs/kVA=
(Total measure cost (Rs))
((Saved capacity kVA or kW PCF) / (1-TDLF) (CUF))
Cost of saved energy (CSE) Rs/kWh=
(Total measure cost (Rs) CRF)
(Annual Energy Savings (kWh))
...Relations and criteria
T & D loss factor of local HT & EHT segment for measures relates to HT
or EHT segment end use =TDLF (HT)
T & D loss factor of local LT segment for measures relates to LT segment
end use=TDLF (LT)
Capacity utilization factor (CUF)is also PLF of the local power plants.(A
low CUF say in hydro power plants as against base load thermal plants
can influence measure cost benefits)
Peak Coincidence Factor (PCF), indicates proportion of the end use
equipment actually operational, during system peak hours.
Utility discount rate, is denoted here as, d.
Each DSM measure cost is assessed for a measure life of 25 years, for
parity with considered utility plant life in account books, and equals the
net present value of measure cost for 25 years of measure life where m
is number of replacements within 25 years, and d is the discount rate.
NEXT STEPS IN DSM
PROCESS:
Analyze and merit rate each of the choices, where the cost of
saved capacity & cost of saved energy of DSM measure is less, as
compared to cost of capacity addition and long run marginal cost
of generation(being utility side SSM costs).
Once all the DSM interventions are merit rated, the logical next
step is the development of Detailed Project Reports and plans for
implementation of short listed DSM interventions, in a
programmatic manner, adopting a standard project management
cycle.

houses)
The Fluorescent tube manufacturers list the rated or nominal wattage on any given
tube as the objective wattage which the tube should dissipate under prescribed
conditions of operation.
The actual wattage, invariably higher, however depends upon factors such as
supply voltage.
A lighting voltage controller operates on the well known principle that reduction
in input power can be achieved by voltage optimization without significant drop in
light output.
A typical device operates by bringing in, an impedance across the lighting circuit,
to control supply voltage and current.
The lighting voltage controllers are modular in configuration and can be used on
lighting circuits and are applicable for Sodium Vapor and Mercury vapor lamps as
well.
Based on end user feedback, Energy Savings of 10% and Demand Savings of 15%
are envisaged through application of the Lighting Voltage controllers.
Lighting System kW Load =24
PF of Lighting circuit =0.85
Lighting system kVA Load =28.2
Hours of annual operation =8760 (indoor application)
Peak coincidence factor = 1.0
Utility discount rate =0.09
End User Electricity Cost = Rs.2.46/kWh
Demand Charges =Rs.170/kVA
Capital Recovery factor =0.102
Transmission and Distribution Loss Factor for HT Industry (TDLF) =
0.3132
Capacity Utilization Factor (CUF) =0.725
Energy Savings (kWh) scope =10%
Demand Reduction (kVA) scope = 15%
Investment in Rs/kVA rating =1800
Measure Life, Years =25 Years
Device life, hours =100,000
Total Measure Cost =Rs.71,144 ,being initial investment +
discounted costs of future replacements over measure life period
.APPLICATION ANALYSIS RESULTS IN A MUNICIPAL WATER
PUMPING STATION
Present annual energy consumption kWh =181332
Annual electricity savings, kWh@ 10% =18133
Annual Demand savings @ 15% =4 kVA * 12 months
Rupee value of annual electricity (kWh) savings =Rs44608
Rupee worth of annual demand (kVA) savings =Rs8160
Total annual savings =Rs52768
Investment for lighting controller (Rs.1800/KVA*Lighting system
kVA Load) =50800
Simple Payback Period Years =
(Investment/Rupee value of annual electricity cost savings)
=less than 1 year
End User Cost Benefits..
Cost of Capacity saved (CSC) in Rs/kW=
(Total Measure Cost (Rs.)) / ((kW Capacity Saved*PCF)/ (1-TDLF)(CUF))
=(71144) /((2.4 * 1)/ (1-.3132)( 0.725))
=Rs. 14760 / kW
Cost of Energy Saved (CSE) in Rs. /kWh=
(Total Measure Cost(Rs.)*(CRF)/(Annual Electricity Savings in kWh)
=(71144 * 0.102)/(18133)
=Rs. 0.40 / kWh
The end user simple payback period of less than 1.0 Year, alongside attractive
utility side costs of Rs. 14760 per kW saved capacity ,as against utility side cost
of Rs 40,000 per kW of capacity addition; and, Rs0.40/kWh cost of saved energy,
as against Rs 2.00/kWh average utility cost of supply, render the DSM measure a
win-win option.
The state Utility / DISCOM could develop a DSM program for all municipal
pump houses in its coverage area and incentivize stakeholders suitably.
It may be appreciated that a well designed DSM program can address energy
efficiency improvement at macro level, considering all local factors.
Analytics in an iterative manner, for sensitivity factors like peak coincidence
factor, TDLF,CUF, discount rate, can be attempted for customized, localized,
program design for various options.

Perceived risk of implementing new EE technologies
Absence of codes/standards on EE.
Lack of reliable and credible service organizations that can
provide full range of project implementation services
Limited Availability Of Capital for financing EE Projects
High costs for consumers to implement EE projects
Administered energy tariffs which distort economics.
Absence of any regulatory mandate to review all options on DSM
& Supply Side Management to develop a least cost capacity

Developing nations initiate programs on
EE in electricity generation,
transmission, distribution and industry
sectors
Developing nations initiate design and
adoption of appropriate energy
conservation laws and regulations,
efficiency standards & labeling, rational
electricity pricing and incentive schemes
for EE
Regulators and utilities initiate regular
load research and development of
customer databases on energy use and
efficiency improvements for analytics and
planning.
Promotion of energy conservation through
mass media - based awareness campaigns
CONCLUSIONS
DSM is a viable, win-win cost effective alternative to SSM.
There is a good case for DI SCOMs to develop customized DSM programs
for end users like industry clusters, agricultural pump sector, municipal
water pumping, street lighting, PSU townships, industrial estates, special
economic zones, commercial buildings etc., due to diffused yet significant
bulk nature of these end user entities and energy efficiency margins.
DISCOMs may also consider developing customized DSM programs,
involving distribution upgrades, automation, kVAh billing, static
metering, TOD tariffs etc, to bridge demand supply gaps efficiently,
without revenue losses.
Current crunch times at utilities call for load research and
comprehensive re-visit to various end use segments for structured DSM
program design and implementation, which could be highly cost effective,
as against supply side capacity augmentation initiatives.
In Summary
Generation is not the only solution for the todays
power crisis. Efficient utilization of available
resource is the key. Hence lets take a decision to
implement DSM at our home first in the interest
of better world....The Journey begins
