Diagram of electricity consumption

An electricity consumption diagram is a graphical representation of electricity consumption data at a delivery point. These data are recorded in 15-minute intervals, providing a detailed overview of how electricity usage changes throughout the day.

Key characteristics of the electricity consumption diagram include:

  • Time intervals: Electricity consumption is recorded every 15 minutes, allowing for detailed monitoring and analysis of usage.

  • Access to data: Consumers can request these data from their electricity supplier. In some cases, consumers have access to the electricity consumption diagram online through their energy supplier's website.

  • Consumption analysis: The consumption diagram helps consumers understand when their electricity usage is highest, which can be useful for optimizing consumption and reducing costs.

The electricity consumption diagram is a valuable tool for households, businesses, and industrial delivery points that aim to manage their electricity usage efficiently and identify opportunities for energy savings.
