Apparatuses, methods and systems for managing a building load reduction of a plurality of loads within a building are disclosed. One method includes assigning one or more loads of the plurality of loads to logical groups, assigning a sensitivity coefficient to each of the logical groups, wherein the sensitivity coefficient is directly proportional to an impact on occupants in the building to load changes, determining the baseline load for each of the logical groups, receiving a power reduction demand response, and reducing a load of each logical group based upon the sensitivity coefficient.
