Summary

The traditional large power plants are now challenged by dispersed generation whose growth will certainly have consequences on the power systems. Several different scenarios are possible. They much depend on the driving forces (economic, legislation, regulation and environmental obligations). However, many technical effects are awaited. They concern generation, planning the development of the systems or its operation etc.
