Examples:
Linear trend
A past trend where the increase in
consumption from year to year is more or
less constant
On an arithmetical graph, it will give a
straight line
In real life, such a growth trend is unlikely
in the power supply industry
Mathematical expression:

Exponential trend
Ct=C0 (1+m)t

requirements.
The system losses can be substantially reduced since line
and equipment does not get overloaded at any point of
time.
The voltage profile at all levels is improved thus
safeguarding the customers equipment from losing their
efficiency and performance at low voltage.
The scheme facilitates the adoption of energy conservation
schemes and energy audit policy.
Power cuts are reduced and quality of power improves
leading to better industrial and agricultural health and
productivity.
