Demand charge
A charge on the highest demand in the period, in kW or kVA, beside the energy price. Every kW shaved off the peak is paid for at the demand rate for the whole month, so a cold store or a charger bank that can hold for the peak has a direct, measurable return, and the meter that sets the charge is the interval meter.
How the register reads it
| Pays for flexibility | pays: a load that can move earns something for moving, so a line on this tariff with an interval meter, a controllable load and a named programme reads can take part. |
|---|---|
| Market-based figure | A demand charge says nothing about the source; the location-based figure is the reported figure unless a contractual instrument is named. |

Requirement text quoted from the standards themselves, published at compliance.theartofservice.com, the same publisher as this register, read against the held text of each standard: our statement of each clause, not the instrument verbatim.
ISO 50001 6.2 Objectives, energy targets and planning to achieve themEstablish objectives at relevant functions and levels and establish energy targets (6.2.1). Objectives and energy targets shall be consistent with the energy policy, measurable if practicable, take account of applicable requirements, consider the SEUs and the opportunities from the energy review, and be monitored, communicated and updated as appropriate; retain documented information on them (6.2.2). Establish and maintain action plans stating what will be done, the resources required, who is responsible, when it will be completed and how results will be evaluated including the methods used to verify energy performance improvement; consider how the actions integrate into business processes; retain documented information on the action plans (6.2.3).
