The article assesses the application of distributed generation to meet the customer’s own needs for electricity and heat. Currently, the electric power industry is faced with many problems of functioning of electric power systems, which have a negative impact on the processes of transmission and distribution of electric energy to end users. These problems lead to decrease in reliability of power supply and economic efficiency of operation of enterprises. In order to solve the problems of increasing the reliability and economic efficiency of electric power systems the introduction of distributed generation is effective. The modes of electric power generation are considered. The paper also analyzes and identifies the features of the application of distributed generation to achieve the required indicators of reliability and economic efficiency of electric power systems.
