The ability to accurately and consistently forecast energy demand is increasingly important. Load forecasting methods have become valuable tools for utilities to measure the impacts of evolving load reduction initiatives, such as innovative pricing and demand response programs.
The Brattle Group is an industry leader in the assessment, development, and application of demand forecasting tools and weather normalization methods. Our energy economic consulting experts work with utilities and government agencies to improve the accuracy and information content of forecasting and weather normalization models, from the initial data collection phases through to the final steps of model calibration and forecasting.
Our modeling capabilities are strengthened by our economic consulting expertise in econometrics and economic forecasting. We have presented our forecasts before regulatory commissions and have provided training sessions and workshops to government agencies and utility executives. Our demand forecasting models and recommendations have been used in the formulation of numerous integrated resource plans and have been adopted by utilities, alternative power suppliers, and regional transmission organizations. They have been applied to procurement management, long-term planning processes, and the design and evaluation of demand response and dynamic pricing programs.
