Predicts when system demand will approach a peak and automatically signals enrolled demand-response capacity to curtail ahead of it — capturing the spread between peak and off-peak energy cost.
Adjust enrolled capacity, accuracy and event frequency and the agent recalculates cost avoided instantly.
| Metric | Value |
|---|
| 1. Predict the peak | Forecasts when system demand will approach capacity constraints using load history and weather-driven demand drivers. |
| 2. Trigger demand response | Signals enrolled commercial and industrial load to curtail or shift consumption ahead of the predicted peak. |
| 3. Verify the shave | Confirms actual load reduction against the triggered capacity, since not every enrolled site responds fully. |
| 4. Hand off | Reports realized capacity to the Renewable Energy Output Predictor and dispatch instructions to the Virtual Power Plant Coordinator. |
