(B-C)(30) BLOCK-CHARGEs are used to calculate energy or demand costs that vary according to the amount consumed. BLOCK-CHARGEs are also used for time-of-use demand charges. Up to 30 BLOCKCHARGEs may be defined, and up to 10 may be referenced by each UTILITY-RATE. The same BLOCK-CHARGE may be referenced by more than one UTILITY-RATE; the program automatically makes as many working copies as are required. See the RATCHET command. BLOCK-CHARGE defines the energy or demand charges that vary according to
