 Describes the evolution of distributed energy systems (DES). Points out that with the trend of urbanization, greenhouse gas emission reduction and energy transformation, third generation distributed energy system (3G DES) should be developed. The 3G DES has three major elements. The first is decentralization, the second is multi-energy and the third is to integrate the application of energy efficient resources from end use and renewable energies to achieve 3D goals, i.e., decentralization, decarburization and digitization. Summarizes the main features and key technologies of the 3G DES.
