Abstract

A load research project by the Florida Power\nCorporation (FPC) is monitoring 200 residences in\nCentral Florida, collecting detailed end-use load data.\nThe monitoring is being performed to better estimate\nthe impact of FPC's load control program, as well as\nobtain improved appliance energy consumption indexes\nand load profiles. A portion of the monitoring\nmeasures water heater energy use and demand in each\nhome on a 15-minute basis.
