Abstract:
Some companies operate owns numerous buildings where they do their business. A typical example of this is the retail stores. These companies are significant power consumers and therefore they are also important players at the power market, especially in the DR programs because they are able to bid really big curtailments and are able to ensure them, either with own personnel or by a servicing company. Some actions can be predefined or taken automatically. However, it is not easy to monitor all the variables that are considered. We consider at least (i) the actual power load and (ii) indoor temperatures because of comfort satisfaction monitoring. Considering 60 sites, with 5 zones and 24 time instants, we have minimally 7200 numbers. This huge amount of numbers cannot be shown in form of tables on a single screen or time series on. The operators however will appreciate the general overview of the whole situation, especially the critical and almost critical aspects. Another requirement is to keep the attention of the operators awaken for a longer time. The mentioned facts can be - of course - summarized in some tabular overview.
