For the case of straight line curve fitting the past values of the
annual peak loads (Y) is plotted against the desired future time in
years (x) as
Y a bx
The two coefficients "a and b" are obtained as

The estimate values of the peak load demand in the years 2005, 2010
and 2015 are calculated as follows:
