Rates for demand charges in the Dominican Rrepublic

Hi, 
In my country for residential and commercial building for peak demand up to 10 kW the demand charge is $0; however for peak demand beyond 10 kW the charge ($/kW) is calculated based on the average of the two months with the highest peak, then all sub-sequence months throughout  that year will be charged with this fixed value. See file attached for illustration. Question, How may I setup this method in "Rates for demand charges" section?

Best Regards,

Dear Carlos,

I think you could approximate this structure for demand charges as follows:

1. Run a simulation with no demand charges to identify the two months with the highest peak and calculate the average $/kW rate.

2. Enable demand charges, and set the tiered demand charge rate using the average value you calculated for $/kW.

3. Run a simulation with demand charge to calculate the electricity bill savings.

Best regards,
Paul.

Thanks Paul for your help on this!
