All load profiling shall be performed by American Electric Power. Sample data and customer specific interval metering, when available, will be used in the development of the total load profile for which the Energy Service Provider is responsible for providing generation and possibly transmission services.
The files below contain the generic class load profiles for Ohio Power Company and Columbus Southern Power Company. Profiles are provided for the Residential, GS1, GS2 and GS3 classes, and EHG for Ohio Power Company. Accounts on GS4, IRP, or Municipal, are NOT provided, as all customers in those classes will require an interval meter in order to participate in choice.These profiles may differ slightly from the profiles previously posted for the same overlapping time periods as we have had updates to previous data.
Each row contains data for one day, including year, month, day, day-of-week indicator (1=Sun ... 7=Sat) and the 24 hourly average per customer in kW usage values. All information is expressed in hour-ending local time. The 3:00 value when Daylight Savings Time begins in April is 0, and in October when Daylight Savings Time ends, the value is the average of the two overlapping hourly values.
