Abstract

La invención tiene por objeto el monitoreo (201) de la demanda en energía eléctrica de una carga de instalación y de compararla a un límite de demanda (202) por un periodo de demanda. Un límite de demanda puede ser ajustado para periodos punta, mientras que otro límite de demanda puede ser ajustado para periodos semi-punta e incluso otro límite de demanda puede ser ajustado para períodos fuera de punta. La repartición de energía eléctrica a partir de un sistema de almacenamiento de energía está basada en la demanda de la carga de instalación en relación al límite de demanda (204).
