Distributed energy (also known as decentralised energy or embedded generation) is the supply of energy (electricity or heat) through a system of multiple small scale generators; with the energy produced generated close to the point of use. These energy systems tend to utilise renewable and low carbon technologies.
Driven by climate change, energy security, economic incentives and the elimination of fuel poverty, Narec advises clients, including local government, housing associations and project developers on how to incorporate the most suitable low carbon and renewable energy technologies into their regeneration programmes.
Narec's Distributed Energy Division (a business unit within the Narec Group) brings hands-on experience of developing new technologies through practical installations. Our independent technical insight and in-depth knowledge of the support available for low carbon projects enables Narec to take a holistic approach to each project.
Specialists work on a wide range of low carbon and renewable energy projects, operating across the public and private sectors. We advise on the implementation of community heating schemes and building-integrated renewable energy systems.
We provide consultancy in energy master planning and citywide energy redevelopment. Training provides accreditation for installers of microgeneration and low carbon technologies.
