SummaryIn this paper the traditional approach in electric power generation is to have centralized plants distributing electricity through an extensive transmission & distribution network. Distributed generation (DG) provides electric power at a site closer to the customer, eliminating the unnecessary transmission and distribution costs and also discuss about issues that arise from the use of distribute generation, policy context for distributed generation in India. A fundamental shift is taking place in the way in which electricity is being produced and distributed. Traditionally, the 'proper' manner of production of electricity has been in large, centralized power stations from where it is distributed to load centers through equally massive transmission networks.
Keywords: distributed generation, renewable sources, issues and policy related to distributed generation.
