In any case, the data file provided in the JAE archive is just a small 
subset of the data from the real-time pricing experiment.

 There are 2 files.
  - TEMPO.ASC, an ascii file containing data used for the estimation
   of the model presented in the paper. (This file is zipped in tempo.zip)
  - TEMPO.PRG, a program for maximizing the log-likelihood function of
   the model using the Kalman filter.

 TEMPO.ASC contains the following variables :

  CLIENT = reference number of a customer
     XHP = average daily consumption of electricity at peak periods
     XHC = average daily consumption of electricity at off-peak periods
     PHP = peak rate
     PHC = off-peak rate
    CODE = type of experiment (useless here)
    JOUR = type of day (1=blue, 2=white, 3=red)
    TEMP = average temperature
   ASSHP = dummy = 1 if management system is on at peaks, 0 if off
   ASSHC = dummy = 1 if management system is on at off-peaks, 0 if off
