Summary:

One in a series of studies on customer response to utility regulatory pricing in early 1975, the North Carolina demonstration project was carried out by the North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC) under a cooperative agreement with the Department of Energy. The participating utilities were Blue Ridge Electric Membership Corporation (BREM or BR) and Carolina Power and Light Company (CP&L). Research Triangle Institute (RTI) provided the research and analysis support to the project, and ICF, Inc. consulted on the time-of-use rate design. The experiment lasted from 1977 to 1979 and involved residential customers of the two participating utilities. Four sets of data resulted from the demonstration: questionnaire survey data from the customers, summary demographic information, utility load reports, and customer usage records. (No weather data were collected.) Three of the sets are available in this data collection. Parts 2 and 3 contain 28 days of data, including hourly data. They also contain identifying information that links their data to the pertinent customer/participant's demographic data in Part 1.... Cf.: http://dx.doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR07885
