Proceedings of the Conference “Consumo e produzione di energia in Provincia di Torino: la strada per una svolta verso l'efficienza energetica e le fonti rinnovabili ” Effects of two energy generation scenarios on urban air quality (NOx daily average concentrations) standard boilers (separate generation) DG with CHP (50% of small NG Engines)
8. DRIVERS 3/3 | Distributed Generation: always ok? Small generation i.e. <10 MW Microgeneration (MG) i.e. <1 MW Data from AEEG, 2006 Italian Energy Regulatory Authority national survey on DG, http://www.autorita.energia.it
9. DRIVERS 3/3 | Distributed Generation: always ok? In 2004 in Italy, DG ( 2,481 plants and a total of 3,852 MW ) has generated 14.3 TWh (gross production), i.e. 5% of the national production of the power sector (303 TWh). The quota of DG production covered by MG is 15%, i.e. 2.15 TWh (1,437 plants and a total of 578 MW installed) Data from AEEG, 2006 Italian Energy Regulatory Authority national survey on DG (reference: Delib. 160/06) Year 2004 14.3 TWh (gross prod.) 23rd of June 2008, Decision no. 74/08 of the Italian Energy Regulatory Authority www.autorita.energia.it New integrated text about on-site generation (into force since 1st of January 2009 - high efficiency CHP up to 200kW - RES systems up to 20 kW)
