Natural Gas Distributed Energy Development Dilemma

Abstract:

Natural gas is a major type of distributed energy. In the current power system structure aging, environmental protection, energy utilization efficiency bottleneck and the user requirements for power quality standards increased the world's demand for new energy. So the development of distributed energy has become the common choice of the countries around the world and become the new direction of global energy development. Compared with the traditional energy supply distributed energy has many advantages, but because of its grid producing, feed-in tariffs, subsidies rules is not detailed, unclear development ideas led to the development of distributed energy slowly. How to develop effective policies to promote the development of natural gas distributed energy become the hot spot of attention.
