EECA has produced this draft guidance document for local government on domestic-scale distributed generation. The document covers photovoltaic (solar electric panels), micro and small-scale wind turbines, and micro and small-scale hydro turbines. The document is intended to provide information on these technologies, the extent and likelihood of any adverse effects associated with the technologies, and ways that these effects can be mitigated. The document has been released as draft and feedback is welcomed.
