Abstract :
The customer response to spot prices is discussed. The factors that allow flexible customer response without service curtailments are identified. An overview of a fast, optimal, nonsimplex algorithm applicable to single storage electricity consuming processes is presented. A case study involving an air compression company demonstrates the application of the algorithm and shows the economic effects of industrial customer response to the spot pricing of electricity
