The Distributed Energy Program supports the development of the next generation of clean, efficient, reliable, and affordable distributed energy technologies and the integration of these technologies at end-user sites. The program works with small, modular power-generating technologies that can be combined with energy management and storage systems to improve the operation of the electricity delivery system.

Distributed Energy Technologies

Small-scale, modular technologies for on-site, grid-connected or stand-alone energy conversion and delivery.

Integrated Energy Systems

Systems that combine distributed power generation with equipment that uses thermal energy to improve overall energy efficiency and fuel use.
