Demand-Side Management
Demand-Side Management (DSM) is a practice in the electricity industry that uses incentives or technical measures to regulate end-user electricity consumption. Its goal is to balance grid supply and demand without expanding generation or transmission infrastructure, and it constitutes a core component of smart grid systems.
Timeline (last 90 days)
For data centers, the feasibility of demand-side management is disputed: inference services usually require low latency and continuous availability, leaving limited room for interruptible load; but training tasks, batch jobs, and some non-real-time inference have a certain degree of temporal flexibility.
Demand-Side Management (DSM) is an established concept in the power industry referring to the use of incentives or technical means to regulate end-user electricity consumption behavior, rather than expanding generation and transmission infrastructure.
Data centers can complement grid supply-demand fluctuations by using AI-driven load regulation to reduce power consumption during peak grid periods and operate at full capacity during off-peak periods.
