This video from DEC does a great job of explaining the value of decentralized energy in meeting the growing demand on our electricity grid. Distributed storage installed in homes and dispatched by the utility relieves constrained circuits and defers costly and risky investments in traditional infrastructure. Storage at the edge provides value all the way upstream to the transmission system.
2024 HIGHLIGHTS - This week, Decentralised Energy Canada is highlighting some of our top moments of 2024. This year, we started an extensive value chain mapping exercise that unpacks the transition to decentralised energy. Using our 21 years of industry experience and targeted research, we created an animation that explores the differences between traditional electricity infrastructure and decentralised energy infrastructure, with a focus on the role of prosumers (consumers who both produce and consume electricity) in the global shift to decentralised energy. It describes how onsite energy will provide a more efficient, resilient, and affordable future. "A decentralised solution demands collaboration and cooperation between government and policymakers, innovation and technology experts, and prosumers," said Giulia Brito Pound, a McGill University student and DEC intern, who is leading this value chain mapping exercise.
