I. Distributed Generat ion, Net Metering, and Feed-in Tariffs What Is Distributed Generation? Distributed Generation refers to power produced at the point of consumption. DG resources, or distributed energy resources (DER), are small-scale energy resources that typically range in size from 3 kilowatts (kW) to 10 megawatts (MW) or larger.

Distributed Generation (DG) | Benefits, Types, & Environmental

Certain distributed generation systems may be unsightly or pose land-use difficulties. Combustion-based distributed generating methods, particularly those that burn fossil fuels, can have many of the same negative consequences as bigger fossil-fuel-fired power plants, such as air pollution, which are closer to people.
