Grid-connected mini-grids and distribution systems  share characteristics with both Grid Extension and Isolated Mini-grids – They are linked to the grid system and are able to import electricity from and export electricity to it, so technically they have more in common with Grid Extension. However, in that they are owned and managed independently they are more similar to Isolated Mini-grids. These differences call for different policy and regulatory approaches, so a separate Technology category has been established.   


Grid Extension

Definition:

Establishment and extension to new users of a system that connects electricity generation plants to consumers via a transmission and distribution network across the country.


Grid-Connected Mini-Grids/Distributed System

Definition:

An electricity system connected to, but owned and/or separately managed from, the main grid system which supplies electricity to users within a local area.


Isolated Mini-Grids

Definition:

A system for generation and distribution of electricity to multiple users which is not connected to the main grid system.


Standalone Systems

Definition:

A system for generating and supplying electricity to a single user (separate from any distribution system).
