Abstract: The development of distributed energy system is one of the important measures to promote energy production and innovation of energy utilization patterns of China. Combined with development status of distributed energy resources in China, this paper introduces the development emphasis and main goals of three distributed generation industries from natural gas, photovoltaic and distributed wind power, then describes the policies about distributed generation from three aspects: subsidy standard, grid connection and electrovalence mechanism. Moreover, it analyzes policy options and management experience in developing distributed generation of several typical developed countries, such as America, Germany, Japan and Denmark. Finally, aiming at further development of distributed generation in China, related recommendations on policy options are put forward from four aspects: policies, regulations, financing channel and development pattern.
