Talk:Load management

message: I would make "ripple control" a separate Wikipedia entry, as it is not only used for load balancing: If street lighting is supplied by the common electricty net, it is usually switched on and off by ripple control, at least in Europe.

  rltec-load-management-demand-control-by-frequency2.pdf» 1.5 MiB -  Part2 - A system to be fitted to domestic appliances - fridges - dishwashers etc to allow the automatic switching off of devices when the frequency of the grid drops. Estimated to be 500 MW available of such load response in the UK. Effectively such an automatic load control system behaves as energy storage. Detailed description of various grid related issues. load curves etc.

replies: text: Whilst interesting, I think this falls into Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_crystal_ball and therefor not really suitable for inclusion in the article. --Aspro (talk) 18:16, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  On the contrary, the technique described in these pdfs is already covered in WP: Dynamic demand (electric power).  Bad use of the crystal ball principle.  This is existing technology that is forming a major portion of government policy proposals regarding Smart grids in the US and the EU.  -J JMesserly (talk) 23:48, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: load control in fridges and dishwashers

message: It originally started with "In the UK night storage heaters, a crude, much despised heating device..." which may have been vandalism and the rest of the section didn't make much sense either. 
The bit that says "night storage heaters are used to increase the load by about 5 GW to accommodate the nuclear programme" is not mentioned in the reference so this part may need to be removed. It also states "These can also be remotely switched using BBC Radio 4 Longwave Radio teleswitch." I am not sure if this was referring to the diesel generators or the night store heaters. --Jwntr (talk) 10:07, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleaned up the UK scheme section 

message: I propose that Load control be merged into Load management. Right now they're both basically talking about the same thing, even through load control is really just about methods to accomplish load management. The article on load control mentions a little more about the technology and load management a little more about the history and examples, but I don't see any huge differences.
Originally I proposed a merger in the opposite direction, but now think this is the best way to go.
