Peak Reduction / Demand Management for FOX.
R&D reason and business value.
Lowering peak kW can reduce electrical stress and create a strong operational story even when total kWh savings are modest.
When HVAC kW approaches a threshold, reduce fan speeds, delay non-critical compressor calls, block simultaneous starts, stagger FCU groups, or pause low-priority zones.
Use 15-minute and 30-second data to count peak events before/after suppression.
Peak hourly kW, peak 15-minute kW, number of peak events, duration above threshold, and comfort impact.
Choose FOX peak threshold and build peak-event detection.
