- Summary:
- One in a series of studies on customer response to utility regulatory pricing in early 1975, the Puerto Rico demonstration project was carried out by the Federal Energy Administration (FEA) and the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority from 1977 to 1980 in the San Juan Metropolitan Area. The study was an experiment to generate and analyze data on the effects of peak-load pricing on residential electricity consumption. The experimental design featured various time of day rates. Five sets of data resulted from the demonstration: questionnaire survey data from the customers, summary demographic information, utility load reports, weather data, and customer usage records. All five sets are available in this data collection. Parts 3-5 each contain 28 days of data, with Parts 3 and 5 including hourly data. Parts 3-5 also contain identifying information that links their data to the pertinent customer/participant's demographic data in Part 2.
