Class Description

Specifies a category of energy usage that the demand response applies for; e.g. energy from lighting, HVAC, other.

Attributes

Name Type Description
activePower Float The active power value for the demand adjustment type. This supports requests to be made to a resource for some amount of active power provided by a particular response method, as specified by the method attribute (e.g. lighting, HVAC, wall mounted air conditioners, etc.).
activePowerUOM String The unit of measure of active power, e.g. kiloWatts (kW), megaWatts (mW), etc.
method String The response method (e.g. lighting, HVAC, wall mounted air conditioners, etc.).
siteMultiplier Integer This value provides for scaling of a response method’s active power. For example, a response method of air conditioning could utilize a small amount of active power from each air conditioning unit (e.g. 0.1 kiloWatt), but the site multiplier could be used to produce a the total active power adjustment by multiplying the response method active power by this value (e.g. a building with 100 window air conditioning units, so 100 * 0.1 kW = 10 kW).
