STIMULATING INNOVATION IN DISTRIBUTED ENERGY

Abstract

The development of distributed energy can significantly improve the efficiency of the electric power industry by using new technologies. Existing mechanisms are associated with the threats of losing existing competencies in the production of domestic equipment for distributed energy and the risks of creating the market only for foreign producers. The article contains analysis of incentive measures for distributed energy, in particular, objects based on renewable energy sources, and contains identified problems and suggested ways to solve them.
