Abstract
Three alternative incentive rate designs for an interruptible load program are described, one of which was activated by Taiwan Power Company (Taipower) in 1987 when some preliminary results were obtained. Here, the effect of the interruptible load on the system peak demand reduction and the change of daily load curve for large industrial customers is analyzed. The avoided cost is estimated and a more appropriate incentive rate structure is designed for the interruptible load program. The interruptible load program has reduced the system peak load in the Taipower system by 270 MW or 2.4% of the yearly peak demand
