Application of demand side management (DSM) as strategic option to reduce energy consumption and cost for commercial building

Demand Side Management (DSM) is an integral part of planning, implementing and monitoring of those utility activities designed to influence consumers in ways that will produce desired changes in quantity, pattern and the utility load shape. In DSM three concepts can be clearly identified: Energy Eff...

This thesis compares different lightings in terms of cost and payback period. Simulations are done using Matlab software. It is discovered that the best lighting option depends on usage hour and payback period. 2012 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/31886/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/31886/5/FarahazleenJamalMFKE2012.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Electrical Engineering
