The purpose of the 20th International Forum on Distributed Energy is to continue to carry out and promote knowledge exchange and cooperation in the field of distributed energy. In this milestone year, we aim to showcase the development process and future trends of distributed energy over the past 20 years by delving into the new concept of distributed energy formed by the development of "wind, light, water, gas, hydrogen, heat", "source, network, load, and storage". The forum will focus on technological innovation, policy orientation, market dynamics, and sustainable development strategies, aiming to provide comprehensive insights for the industry and promote global cooperation and development.

Since its first session in 2004, the International Forum on Distributed Energy has successfully gone through a glorious 19 year journey. As a benchmark activity within the industry, this forum brings together experts and scholars, industry leaders, policy makers, and technology innovators in the field of distributed energy every year to jointly explore the development trends, technological innovation, and market opportunities of distributed energy. With the rapid development of the energy field and the continuous progress of technology, the importance of distributed energy as a key way to achieve energy transformation and sustainable development is becoming increasingly prominent.

This forum is not only a review of the achievements in the field of distributed energy over the past 20 years, but also an exploration and guidance for future development directions. In the current era of profound changes in the global energy landscape, distributed energy, as an important component of energy transformation, is of great significance for achieving carbon reduction goals, promoting energy security, and improving economic benefits. This forum will provide participants with a platform to exchange ideas, share experiences, and explore cooperation, jointly promoting innovation and development in the field of distributed energy.
