Abstract: An electrical load management system for controlling first, second, and third electrical loads is provided. A load management computer determines a demand threshold indicating a threshold amount of demanded power from a utility company power grid. The computer determines whether a time interval has an associated non-peak energy charge. And if so, then the computer determines whether a first total load request from the first, second, and third electrical loads will exceed the demand threshold. And if so, then the computer determines whether a second total load request from the first and second electrical loads having high and medium load priorities, respectively, will exceed the demand threshold. And if not, then the computer commands the first and second electrical loads to be energized for the predetermined time interval.
