Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems, methods, and apparatus for estimating demand response load change. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for estimating energy usage change associated with a demand event. The method may include determining energy potential change during a demand event for one or more devices associated with a location; estimating energy usage patterns for the location over predefined time periods before and after the demand event; determining pre-demand event and post-demand event energy rebounds based at least in part on the estimated energy usage patterns; determining an energy change profile associated with the location based at least in part on the determined energy potential change, and the pre-demand event and post-demand event energy rebounds.

A computing device for use with a demand response system is provided. The computing device includes a processor that is programmed to select at least one participant from a plurality of customers to participate in at least one demand response event. The processor is also programmed to schedule the demand response event. The processor is programmed to compare the selected participant with participants of previously scheduled demand response events to confirm whether the selected participant is able to participate in the demand response event. The processor is also programmed to compare the demand response event with the previously scheduled demand response events. The processor is further programmed to reschedule the demand response event and/or at least one of the previously scheduled demand response events when any conflicts are identified based on the comparison between the demand response event and the previously scheduled demand response events.

A method of managing a machinery monitoring system is provided. The machinery monitoring system includes a database of at least one rule set, the rule set including at least one rule expressed as a relational expression of a real-time data output relative to a real-time data input, the relational expression being specific to a plant asset. The method includes importing data representative of a rule set into the machinery monitoring system, applying the at least one rule set to a specific plant asset wherein the at least one rule set is configured to locate the data input using at least a portion of the relative path information, determining a data output of the at least one rule set using the at least one relational expression and the data input, and transmitting the data output to at least one of the machinery monitoring system and the plant monitoring and control system.
