POWER
Summary
Distributed energy resources (DERs) have become a major part of the power generation landscape, particularly in support of a more reliable and resilient grid. Generating electricity from a variety of sources, including fossil fuels and renewables (Figure 1), using smaller-scale installations is now a key element of demand response and energy efficiency.
Microgrids, now a major contributor to the power supply in many locations, offer reliability and resilience for generation, both for remote, off-grid sites, and in areas that need power for critical infrastructure. Technologies such as microturbines, fuel cells, and CHP [combined heat and power] systems offer flexible, localized generation that can be highly effective.
