What does “baseload” mean?

Your baseload is the energy usage that results from your appliances that are “always on,” like a DVR, alarm clock, night light, etc. Your home’s energy use may approach baseload levels in the middle of the night, when everyone is asleep and most other appliances are switched to off or standby.
