DM Copyright © Tekes Definition of Distributed Energy Systems Real estate-size Block-size Factory-size Production of power, heat and cold Especially renewable energy Independent or connected to power or heat network Mobile, if needed ”Local, small sized systems for energy conversion, production and storage as well as related services”

DM Copyright © Tekes Basis and Opportunities Global trends Increasing energy security Addressing environmental values Liberalized energy markets Growing demand for renewables and combined heat and power Commercial opportunities Lower net investments – perhaps lower price per kW and kWh Possibility for modular/serial production – lower costs Independency from power/heat-networks – network failures High price for power/heat transmission due to local monopolies Demand side management of power and heat – larger demand for peak power Future opportunities for power trade on large scale
