Abstract :
In any developing country an increasingly higher demand for electricity supply exists. South Africa experienced load shedding during 2007/2008 and again in 2014 due to a supply shortfall. Demand Side Management (DSM) is a short-term solution to stabilise the national grid by managing the electricity demand on the consumer´s side. DSM aims to reduce the electricity consumption with immediate results in the short-term.
