Residential distributed energy refers to any storage or generation of energy near the source of demand within a residential building. This can refer to renewable energy sources (e.g., solar PV), fossil fuel sources (e.g., microcogeneration), or a combination of both (e.g., hybrid heat pumps). A residential building may refer to any type of single or multifamily home or apartment block.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
