This paper starts from the observation that there is a renewed interest
in small-scale electricity generation. The authors start with a survey
of existing small-scale generation technologies and then move on
with a discussion of the major benefits and issues of smallscale
electricity generation. Different technologies are evaluated in terms
of their possible contribution to the listed benefits and issues.
Small-scale generation is also commonly called distributed generation,
embedded generation or decentralised generation. In a final section,
an attempt is made to define the latter concepts more precisely.
It appears that there is no consensus on a precise definition as
the concept encompasses many technologies and applications.
