EC2 Demand Growth (With & Without Demand-Side Management)
Percentage | F2005 | F2006 | F2007 | F2008 | F2009 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Growth Rate with DSM | 1.6% | 2.7% | 1.3% | 0.3% | -1.8% |
| Growth Rate without DSM | 2.7% | 3.9% | 1.9% | 1.3% | -1.3% |
The growth rate is calculated as the year-over-year change in domestic load. Slower growth in the residential and commercial sector, and negative growth rate in the industrial sector, lead to the decline in total BCH firm sales in fiscal 2009 relative to fiscal 2008.
Results for Demand Growth without DSM, published in prior year reports, may differ due to changes in BC Hydro’s historical annual acquired energy savings.
