| Abstract | High-resolution stochastic models of electricity demand can help quantify the impacts of low-carbon technology and demand-side management on low-voltage networks. While considerable progress has been made on developing models for the domestic sector, the non-domestic sector remains relatively undeveloped. This is a concern as low-voltage feeders often include a mix of domestic and nondomestic consumers. With the aspiration of informing the development of highresolution stochastic energy demand models for the non-domestic sector, this paper provides general recommendations about how a commercial office demand model might be structured and what features should be included. These recommendations are founded on a detailed analysis of high-resolution end-use demand data for a single office building. The results indicate that modelling of commercial multi-tenanted office buildings could be viewed as analogous to modelling a group of dwellings with partial residency (to represent individual office units within the building), with communal heating and communal spaces, a limited number of work-related appliances and occupant activity profiles. |
