An industrial chemical (CH3CCl3) used as a solvent, aerosol propellant, and pesticide and for metal degreasing.
Industry:Energy
The annual changes in energy use (measured in megawatthours) and peak load (measured inkilowatts) caused by new participants in existing DSM (Demand-SideManagement) programmes and all participants in new DSM programmes during a given year. Reported Incremental Effects are annualised to indicate the programme effects that would have occurred had these participants been initiated into the programme on January 1 of the given year. Incremental effects are not simply the Annual Effects of a given year minus the Annual Effects of the prior year, since these net effects would fail to account for programme attrition, equipment degradation, building demolition, and participant dropouts. Please note that Incremental Effects are not a monthly disaggregate of the Annual Effects, but are the total year's effects of only the new participants and programmes for that year.
