  7. Abstract:
  8. Increasing electric energy consumption has necessitated long term planning of power generation based on the concept of least cost planning. Minimization of energy supply and optimization of technology mix had been considered as the main objective functions. But issues on the energy productivity, demand side management, externalities and internalizing external costs have dominated energy scheme which has lead to the development of comprehensive criteria such as Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) and Total Resource Cost (TRC). In these cases it is aimed to develop a comprehensive view of the energy planning that may include the case of DSM and externalities. The objective of the present project has been development of a simple and comprehensible method for evaluation of DSM Programs, which may be considered as an introduction to the method based on IRP or mathematical programming. Reduction of variables and parameters should provide the advantage of the method. Such a method should provide an appropriate means of visualizing and understanding the results easily. Realization of the above adjectives and evaluating of DSM programs requires simultaneous consideration of supply and demand. Therefore the present research work has been focused on further development of screening curve of technologies to include the demand side management programs. Such a development enables to achieve the above mentioned objective. Application of the method based on the combination of screening curve and energy models has been demonstrated.
