Study of potential savings at a cement plant

Demand-side management (DSM) has the potential to reduce electricity costs and the carbon emissions associated with electricity use for industrial consumers. It also has an important role to play in integrating variable forms of generation, such as wind and solar, into the grid. This will be a key part of any grid decarbonization strategy. This paper describes a method that can be used to develop a new production schedule for a wide range of manufacturing facilities.
