  • Abstract
    This article provides a comprehensive review and describes the impact of the bill on distributed generation, the electricity market, the national electrical grid, and the future of how electricity will be delivered in the United States. The energy policy act of 2005 removes the requirement that utilities purchase power under the condition that the qualifying facility has access to alternative markets. A single IEEE 1547 standard could be applied to any distributed resource interconnection
