Title | Peak Demand |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the time of the highest total demand for the nation. |
Comment | Winter Peak is a view of peak demand between the hours of 17:00 and 18:00 – typically November-February on a week day |
Example | 82.07 |
Unit | MW |
DemandAM
Title | Minimum Demand (Summer Morning) |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the time of the lowest total demand for the nation |
Comment | Summer Minimum AM is a view of demand between 0500-0600, typically in June-August on a Summer Sunday morning. |
Example | 33.379 |
Unit | MW |
DemandPM
Title | Minimum Demand (Summer Afternoon) |
---|---|
Type | number |
Description | Expected demand at the specified location at the lowest summer afternoon national demand. |
Comment | Summer Minimum PM is a view of demand between 13:00-1400, typically June-August, Summer Sunday afternoon. This period is interesting to study as, whilst not being as low as the morning demand, high solar output will create a low demand on the transmission network. |
