What is responsibility factor?

Responsibility factor is often used in guiding demand side management. Utilities often get charged for its contribution to the peak of independent system operator. To avoid a high charge, a utility has to reduce the responsibility factor. This can be done by implementing various programs that help shift the peak. Similarly, responsibility factor is also used in rate making. A customer with high peak demand may not get high demand charge if the peak occurs during off-peak period of the utility system load.

How to Calculate Coincidence Factor?

Coincidence Factor calculator uses Coincidence Factor = 1/Diversity Factor to calculate the Coincidence Factor, Coincidence factor is the peak of a system divided by the sum of peak loads of its individual components. It tells how likely the individual components are peaking at the same time. The highest possible coincidence factor is 1, when all of the individual components are peaking at the same time. Coincidence Factor is denoted by CIF symbol.

How to calculate Coincidence Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Coincidence Factor, enter Diversity Factor (Diversity Factor) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Coincidence Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.70922 = 1/1.41.

FAQ

What is Coincidence Factor?

Coincidence factor is the peak of a system divided by the sum of peak loads of its individual components. It tells how likely the individual components are peaking at the same time. The highest possible coincidence factor is 1, when all of the individual components are peaking at the same time and is represented as CIF = 1/Diversity Factor or Coincidence Factor = 1/Diversity Factor. Diversity Factor is defined as the ratio of the sum of the maximum demands of the various part of a system to the coincident maximum demand of the whole system.

How to calculate Coincidence Factor?

Coincidence factor is the peak of a system divided by the sum of peak loads of its individual components. It tells how likely the individual components are peaking at the same time. The highest possible coincidence factor is 1, when all of the individual components are peaking at the same time is calculated using Coincidence Factor = 1/Diversity Factor. To calculate Coincidence Factor, you need Diversity Factor (Diversity Factor). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Diversity Factor and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
