Peak shaving generators

Hello, i want to design a peak shaving system. I want to have a circuit that can be able to start/stop and connect/disconnect a generator when there is a peak demand. it must be able to sense the load and then automatically start and connect a generator to the grid to meet the demand.

Need help.

Thanks in advance.

Colin

    i think it can be done by keeping an eye on frequency.
    If frequency goes down it means load is increasing so we can define a range below which if frequency goes down then a command is triggered to start another unit.
    A computer programme in microcontroller can conrol everything..
    Do redress me..
