Abstract:
A method for dispatching buildings in a demand response program event including generating data sets for each of the buildings, each set having energy consumption values along with corresponding time and outside temperature values, where the energy consumption values within each set are shifted by one of a plurality of lag values relative to the corresponding time and outside temperature values, and where each of the plurality of lag values is different from other ones of the plurality of lag values; performing a non-linear parabolic analysis on each set to yield machine learning model parameters and a residual; determining a least valued residual from all residuals yielded, the least valued residual indicating a corresponding energy lag for the each of the buildings; and using energy lags for all of the buildings to generate a dispatch schedule for the demand response program event according to a prioritization of the energy lags.

Claim (Index 15):
A method for dispatching buildings participating in a demand response program event, the method comprising:\n retrieving a plurality of baseline energy use data sets for the buildings from a baseline data stores; generating a plurality of energy use data sets for each of the buildings, each of the plurality of energy use data sets comprising energy consumption values along with corresponding time and outside temperature values, wherein the energy consumption values within the each of the plurality of energy use data sets are shifted by one of a plurality of lag values relative to the corresponding time and outside temperature values, and wherein each of the plurality of lag values is different from other ones of the plurality of lag values; performing a non-linear parabolic analysis on the each of the plurality of energy use data sets to yield corresponding non-linear parabolic model parameters and a corresponding residual; determining a least valued residual from all residuals yielded by the non-linear parabolic analysis, the least valued residual indicating a corresponding energy lag for the each of the buildings, wherein the corresponding energy lag describes a transient energy consumption period preceding a change in outside temperature; using energy lags for all of the buildings to generate a dispatch schedule for the demand response program event according to a prioritization of the energy lags; and controlling a specified load shedding by performing load shedding actions in the order provided by the dispatch schedule, wherein the dispatch schedule directs for dispatch of ones of the buildings having greater energy lags prior to others of the buildings having lesser energy lags.
