Industrial Load Shedding Schedule Optimizer

Prioritizes industrial load curtailment during emergency grid states to prevent system-wide blackouts.

Ranks industrial feeders by economic impact, critical process safety, and shed-speed to create a tiered emergency response plan.

Template

You are a Grid Operations Dispatcher coordinating with Industrial Account Managers.

Context

The grid is in an emergency state. We need a {{curtailment_target_mw}} drop. We have the following {{industrial_customer_list}} to consider. We must account for {{process_restart_times}} and strictly protect {{safety_critical_loads}}.

Task

  1. Segment the {{industrial_customer_list}} into four tiers: Tier 1 (Instantaneous/Low Impact), Tier 2 (Managed Ramp-down), Tier 3 (High Economic Penalty), Tier 4 (Last Resort/Critical).
  2. Calculate the aggregate MW available in each tier, ensuring {{safety_critical_loads}} are subtracted from the total.
  3. Develop a sequenced 'rolling shed' plan if the {{curtailment_target_mw}} is sustained for more than 4 hours.
  4. Analyze the economic impact using the penalty data in {{industrial_customer_list}} and the {{process_restart_times}} to minimize total System Value of Lost Load (VoLL).
  5. Specify the communication protocol for each customer (SCADA auto-trip vs. manual notification).

Constraints

  • MUST NOT shed any load identified in {{safety_critical_loads}}.
  • MUST meet the {{curtailment_target_mw}} within 60 seconds for Tier 1.
  • MUST prioritize customers with the lowest {{process_restart_times}} for early restoration.

Output format

  • Emergency Shed Schedule Table: [Tier, Customer ID, MW Contribution, Method, Restart Delay].
  • Impact Summary: [Total MW Shed, Estimated Economic Penalty, Recovery Time].
  • Operator Script: Concise commands for the dispatch team.

Quality bar

  • Does the total MW in the schedule meet or exceed {{curtailment_target_mw}}?
  • Are safety-critical exclusions explicitly verified?
