1. A load management system, comprising:

  • a detecting module configured to create at least one activated one of a plurality of loads located in a predetermined space as an activation set, and create a group set comprising a plurality of sub-groups according to locations and activation times of the at least one activated one of the plurality of loads, wherein the detecting module creates the at least one activated one of the plurality of loads which has been activated within a predetermined time period as one of the sub-groups, anda determining module configured to determine whether each of the at least one activated one of the plurality of load is an essential load or a non-essential load according to the group set and the activation set, and to produce a determining result, wherein the determining module is configured to determine whether each of the at least one activated one of the plurality of loads is the essential load or the non-essential load according to an aggressive mode and a comfortable mode, wherein;

    when the load management system is in the aggressive mode, the determining module is configured to compare the sub-groups with the activation set sequentially, and tag each of the loads of a first sub-group of the sub-groups as the non-essential load when the first sub-group is partially included in the activation set; and

    when the load management system is in the comfortable mode, the determining module is configured to compare the sub-groups with the activation set sequentially, tag each of the loads of a second sub-group of the sub-groups as the essential load when the second sub-group is included in the activation set, and tag each of the remaining loads, which is not tagged as the essential load, of the activation set as the non-essential load after the comparison.
