Abstract

A demand response system has been installed in the Village of Hartley Bay, a remote community in BC, Canada, with the intent improving overall general dispatch efficiency. This community of 170 people is supplied by a small electrical network that is powered by three diesel generators. The demand response system is being developed to shed or add demand when a predictive algorithm, “the typical curve,” estimates an inefficient peak is to occur. Variable thermostats and 30 amp load controllers were installed in the commercial facilities to shed loads in, e.g., the school, health center, and community center. The total shed capacity is 20 percent of the typical maximum winter demand. Initial results indicate an unnoticed change in level of service to the community and an unexpected benefit of energy conservation with limited rebound and an anticipated energy reduction of up to 3 per cent.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
