<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">In theory, coincident peak should be less than non-coincident peak. The coincident peak is the components that contribute to the building peak, while the non-coincident
is the peak for each individual component (that may occur at different times of the day) – so it should be higher.
