Abstract:
The invention concerns a system, a method, and a computer program product for load management in an electrical power generation, transmission and distribution network. A device arranged at a load point comprises means for a procedure call that may be remotely invoked in order to switch on or off a part load of an end user for the purpose of load demand management. The invention enables load to be reduced incrementally and restored quickly and automatically. The invention is carried out in part by a computer program product. The invention advantageously uses web technology to provide a power network with automated load management in an economic way. In a power network, the invention spreads the load shaving more evenly over a wide geographical area, as opposed to the traditional method of “rotating blackouts.”
