How to model a Utility Tariff with different schedules for Energy vs Demand
Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone could assist with utility tariff modeling- for a case that Energy Charges come with a different schedule compared to the Demand Charges.
My initial thought was about adding a second UtilityCost:Tariff object that could represent the demand schedule (and assign the energy schedule into the first UlityCost:Tariff object); and then create UtilityCost:Charge:Simple for both Energy and Demand.
However, this option did not work, as I have to leverage UtilityCost:Qualify, in order to be able to select between different scenarios with different demand thresholds. In other words, I have to stick into one UtilityCost:Tariff in order to takes benefits of UtilityCost:Qualify.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
