Abstract :
This paper evaluates the potential of demand side management "DSM" (that includes energy conservation and load management activities) in different governmental subsectors in Egypt based on the demand pattern analysis of different types of these subsectors obtained from the time-of-use (TOU) meters and energy audits carried out at some governmental customers. In addition, the impact of DSM in the total governmental sector on the demand forecast and consequently on the power system expansion plan is presented
