Abstract: In October of 1972, Consumers Power Company began a one year duration gas load study. One of the main objectives of this study was to determine the demand characteristics of the various classifications of customers in our rale structure. Information of this nature is important in rale making, as one of the common methods of distributing plant costs within the rale structure is based on the anticipated demand that will be created by various classes of customers. This is probably the fairest method of distributing these costs. as the delivery capacity of the distribution line or system and therefore its expense, is determined largely by the demand that will be placed upon it. A survey of the type recently concluded by Consumers, allows rate analysts to recreate a peak day (or days) and determine what portion of the demand was created by each of the classifications of customers in the survey. This information may then be incorporated into new or revised rate schedules.
