[Equest-users] Modeling Block kWh/kW

[Soham Babu]

Kasun,

You can try inputting utility rates in eQuest as shown in the screenshots below. We also need to add schedule in block charge tab.

I'm not sure how to set up the following rate structure in eQuest:

http://www.nspower.ca/en/home/aboutnspower/ratesandregulations/electricityrates/generaltariff.aspx

On the energy side, the cost is $0.01593/kWh for the first 200 kWh per month per kW of max demand, and then $0.007494/kWh for all additional kWh.  This is what I'm not how to set up in eQuest.

An example would be say in a giving month, the bldg. uses 4,880 kWh and has a demand of 20.6 kW.  The total kWh applied to the higher rate ($0.01593/kWh) would be 20.6 kW multiplied by 200 hours, or 4,120 kWh.  The total kWh applied to the lower rate would then be 4,880 kWh minus 4,120 kWh, or 760 kWh.

Does anyone know how to set this rate structure up in eQuest??

Thanks!
Darryl
