[Equest-users] Time-Of-Use Rates - capture 30 minute intervals?

Hi Nishant,

I’m in a camp where we do all utility rate/tariff analysis and application to the modeled energy outputs in post-processing, to allow flexibility for dealing with these sorts of unique and utility-specific headaches… that’s to say I’m not *super* familiar or practiced in recent years with the wizard’s capabilities/limitations around defining rate structures, but to suggest:  Could you possibly define an additional TOU period (i.e. call it “middle-of-the-road-peak”) that you could then apply at 8AM and 9PM (2 hours per day), then define that rate numerically as the average between the two period rates?  There would be no loss in modeled accuracy with that approach with (very little of) the doe2 simulation executing at a sub-hourly interval.

Just an idea…

Good Afternoon Everyone,

I am trying to model time-of-use rates and have a question around it. Is there a way to to insert time of uses like 8:30 AM and 9:30 pm, or shall I have to live with 8AM to 9PM or 9AM to 8PM?
Any guidance will be much appreciated,
