The index is up 144% over the last 12 months (as of 02.06.2021) and 322% since inception . Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nDistributed renewable generation is the ecosystem that allows green energy to be created and managed close to the point of use, for example at home. The DGEN renewable energy ETF will be launched on the HANetf platform and is expected to list on London Stock Exchange in June 2021.<\/p>\n
Distributed Renewable Energy involves converging decarbonising technologies and includes residential solar panels, energy storage, smart meters, vehicle-to-grid energy (\u2018V2G\u2019), electric vehicle charging, smart inverters, and software solutions that leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) to manage the system. Coupled with energy storage solutions, they can bring a variety of benefits to the system: frequency control, demand response, mitigate the overload of dated transmission lines, support continuous balancing of the electricity supply, and increase the overall reliability.<\/strong><\/p>\niClima says the rise of distributed energy away from an aging and increasingly obsolete centralised grid model based on large fossil fuel installation has been prompted by the decentralisation of the power sector, combined with the digitalisation of grid controls and energy efficiency, and the decarbonisation of our energy mix.<\/p>\n
It also says the electrification of transportation and heating will increase the need to add more renewable based solutions to the system. In the USA, making use of 2\/3 suitable rooftops for solar photovoltaic to generate electricity could replace the country\u2019s annual electricity generation from coal, which represented 23% of all sources of US electricity generation in 2019 .<\/strong><\/p>\nIt is predicted that as much as $846 billion will be invested in Distributed (renewable) Energy Sources between 2020 and 2030 .<\/p>\n
