[Equest-users] automatic calculation of peak demand month for minimum qualifiers?

Here in VA, Dominion Power has a commercial rate schedule (GS-3) that is
primarily a demand-based rate schedule. Energy is provided at something
like 3 cents / KWH, and the demand charges are broken down into
distribution and generation.

Distribution is $2.12 per the max KW measured throughout the year (in
reality it is negotiated with the provider, but I'm simplifying it this
way)

Generation is the peak demand of that month or 75% of the highest demand
measured from June to September of the preceding 11 months.

Has anyone successfully created a user expression to do something like
this?

To use the distribution as an example: can you even perform a routine
that finds the max billing demand KW for the year, or is that outside of
the scope of eQuest / DOE-2?

Thanks!
