Distributed energy (DE) offers a variety of advantages for many perspectives. Energy consumers, power providers, and other stakeholders all have their own reasons for wanting greater adoption of DE.
Distributed power generators are small compared with typical central station power plants and provide unique benefits that are not available from centralized electricity generation. Many of these benefits stem from the fact that the generating units are inherently modular, which makes distributed power highly flexible. It can provide power where it is needed when it is needed. And because they typically rely on natural gas or renewable resources, the generators can be quieter and less polluting than large power plants, which makes them suitable for on-site installation at some customer
locations.
