English term or phrase: demand ratchet
you may also see two different types of demand on your bill – actual demand and billing demand. Actual demand is just what it sounds like – the highest actual average 15 minute demand measured during the billing period. The billing demand is the highest 15 minute demand measured at your site in previous months. Each month you could be billed the higher of these 2 numbers. Bills that show both actual demand and billing demand use a factor called demand ratchet. This simply means that if you demand a lot more power during one month – for instance during July in Miami – then the highest average 15 minute demand for that month will be billed for July and the next 11 months even if the actual demand is lower during subsequent months".

ajuste de tarifa por el pico máximo contractual


Explanation:
"Consider this example where the highest peak demand measured on the customer's service in the last 12 months was 350 kilowatts and occurred 8 months ago. If this utility had a demand ratchet, the customer would be billed for the 350 kilowatts worth of peak power usage each following month regardless of the actual demand used as long as it's less than 350 kilowatts. As soon as the customer reaches a new peak demand higher than 350 kilowatts, they are billed for that amount of demand charge for the next 12 months or until they use more and set a new higher peak."
