TL;DR: Load-shifting resources reduce electric utility operating costs by shifting the time at which the rest of the generation resources supply the energy demanded by customers as mentioned in this paper. But, the economic dispatch of load-sh shifting resources is contingent on resource availability.
Abstract: Load-shifting resources reduce electric utility operating costs by shifting the time at which the rest of the generation resources supply the energy demanded by customers The economic dispatch of load- shifting resources is contingent on resource availability Many widely used utility decision-making aids rely on production simulation metbods that ignore or incorrectly incorporate the effects of resource availability ability on the contingent decisions to operate load- shifting resources The resulting production cost estimates can seriously misrepresent the potential value of load-shifting resources and thereby mislead decision makers
