چکیده

This paper develops a model and implementation plan for using ICT (Information and Communication Technology) combined with Predictive and Behavioral Analytics to build demand for more sustainable power consumption in the community as a small 100-year-old power company upgrades to using consumer level smart meters in its geographically isolated rural mountain town. With the upgrade to smart meters, the power company hopes to be able to predict power consumption, particularly system wide peak loads in conjunction with individual usage, and use ICT and incentives to encourage users to lower their power consumptions. The plan includes using both financial and psychological methods to help reach these goals. The models, planned implementation and process are outlined in this prospective case study.
