Abstract— To derive an energy management for sustainable KW Management KVAR Management energy usage the peak demand analysis is highly critical. This paper presents the investigations on the peak demand analysis for the existing power system network at Taylor’s University. From the analysis it is inferred that the average peak demand of Utilising Avoiding Reducing Adjusting 3000kW could be managed with proper kilowatt management. Improvise The analysis pertaining to the computations of power analysis and Improvising a proposed framework to support the analysis is presented. Architecture usage Further to stabilising the load requirement, equally the economics of the system is improvised by about 7.33%. demand low power devices Keywords— peak demand, energy management, economics penalty 1. Introduction KWhr Managed The most common factor influence the energy management is the active energy consumption (KWh), the reactive energy Figure 1. KWhr Management Strategy consumption (KVARh) and the peak demand (KW). 2. Methodology Conventionally the utility system put their effort on the reduction of KWh consumption and on addressing the reactive The methodology involved in this investigations is as shown energy demand to improvise the power factor. However for the in the Figure 2 and the power system architecture is as shown medium voltage and high voltage consumers’ proper KW in Figure 3. The computation procedure for the demand demand management implies to reduce the use of contracted analysis and the net KW demand computation is as below. Let power, adjusting to the new requirement and avoiding the the contracted power be (PC), the maximum demand is (PD) demand limit penalties [1]. Figure 1 shows the concept in the then the power used in excess (PE) is computed as power management. As can be seen the power management is PE = PC - PD (1) interlinked and the possible energy management between the where PDm is the actual peak demand value from the KW and KVAr the net power consumption can be reduced. In maximum demand meter and Kd is the demand factor order to find the demand requirement to propose new system PD = PDm X Kd (2) architecture to address the demand requirement the peak The penalty by the supplier to the utility is computed as demand analysis is to be investigated. Peak demand is the PP = (PC - PD) X KP (3) power consumed over a predetermined period of time, typically where KP is the penalty factor. Therefore the actual KW value between 8 to 30 minutes. The power is calculated using a (PA) computed is given by power demand meter, which records the highest KW value in PA = [(PC - PD) X KP] + [PDm X KD ] (4) the period of measurement, over a month’s time. The purpose . of demand control is not to exceed the contracted maximum Demand Meter Start demand limit. The common way is to isolate the non-critical KW load during peak hours. A number power demand modeling merge and analysis, towards optimization of demand curve [2] as well Data Unit Consumption as forecasting [1] are the subjects of interest in recent years. Collection However, accuracy and resolution of the model are important Energy Data Base [3]. We have utilized the data on energy management from the Taylor’s University, Malaysia laced at latitude of 3°07'51.99"N extract and longitude of 101°59'11.77"E. The demand analysis is based on the utilized power between Jan 2011 till April 2013. Our Origin Data Analysis initial study is to derive the average peak demand requirement Mathematical and suggest a KW management system for energy Power Demand Analysis Tool sustainability. From our study a detailed proposal on the energy End management by suggesting a KW framework is to be presented Figure 2. Methodology Employed towards the end of this research work.

As can be seen the average peak demand (PD) Penalty is about 20.87% and the KWh utility is about 78.77% for the 3500 Peak Demand three year period. If the average peak demand is catered 3400 through a energy management system the power system [KW] 3300

D network ideally becomes sustainable. Figure 4 shows the unit 3200 consumption and during the second quarter the unit 3100 consumption is predominantly high and at the same time the 3000 peak demand (as in Figure 5) is critically very high. The peak 2900 demand is addressed through the design of a renewable structure and reconfigures the existing power system 2800 architecture in our further investigations.
