A methodology is provided for informing targeted Demand-Response (DR) and marketing programs that focus on the temperature-sensitive part of residential electricity demand. The methodology uses energy consumption readings collected from “smart” electricity meters, as well as hourly temperature readings. Individual consumption is decomposed into a thermal-sensitive part and a base load (non thermally-sensitive), a model of temperature response that is based on thermal regimes, i.e., unobserved decisions of customers to use their heating or cooling appliances. This model is used to extract useful benchmarks that compose a thermal profiles of individual customers, i.e., terse characterizations of the statistics of these customers' temperature-sensitive consumption. This knowledge may, in turn, inform the DR program by allowing scarce operational and marketing budgets to be spent on customers whose influencing will yield highest energy reductions at the right time. Methods are also provided for scheduling optimal, individual customer controls of the thermal appliance to achieve a desired profile of the aggregate energy reductions.

When a video signal is inputted to a projector (10) through a video input terminal, a luminance peak value of an image of the video signal is detected by an image-analyzing circuit (61) to be outputted to a CPU (71).
