Time Dynamics of Electricity Demand in Air-Distribution Systems for Commercial Buildings in Sweden

• This paper illustrates the potential for reducing future electricity demand for air distribution in commercial buildings in Sweden. We have developed a general, quantitative, scenario-based framework to describe electricity demand for air distribution and to analyze how governmental and utility-sponsored policy measures affect electricity demand. The results suggest that higher electricity prices will not be very effective in reducing electricity demand, whereas significant electricity savings can be achieved by implementing desirable policy programs.
