TELLEZ-GUTIERREZ, Sandra; DUARTE-VELASCO, Oscar  and  ROSERO-GARCIA, Javier. DEMAND-SIDE MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES BASED ON ENERGY KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS IN REAL-TIME: CASE STUDY. C.T.F Cienc. Tecnol. Futuro [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.1, pp.5-16. ISSN 0122-5383.  https://doi.org/10.29047/01225383.128.

This paper sets out features of traditional Energy Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) employed in energy management programs; then, new indicators are proposed based on Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) usage. These indicators make it possible to directly relate the amount of energy, type of end use and user consumption patterns. Analysis of AMI system information enables planning for differentiated Demand-Side Management (DSM) strategies. A case study developed at Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Bogotá campus is presented, which proposes new Energy Key Performance Indicators in Real Time. These indicators enable information analysis and DSM strategies that are appropriate for new technologies and that are aimed at increasing energy efficiency. Additionally, this paper presents the factors that have to be taken into account when implementing KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and the decision-making process. This results in variable overall energy savings between 5 and 40%, according to the DSM strategy implemented.

Keywords : Demand side management; Energy Key Performance Indicator on Real Time; Strategies; Advanced Metering Infrastructure.
