| Project | Incremental distribution network | Microgrid |
| Capacity | Meet the power distribution needs and planning requirements, unlimited | Not more than 20MW, usually megawatts or less |
| voltage classes | Power grid of 110KV and below and local power grid of 220 (330) KV and below in industrial parks (economic development zones) | Generally 35KV and below |
| Whether the power | At present, it is generally accepted that the incremental distribution network is also a public power network, which can be connected to the distributed power supply of users or incorporated into the incremental distribution network | Domestic power supply, mainly renewable energy, grid-connected micro-grid renewable energy installed capacity and the maximum load ratio of more than 50% |
| Self-Balancing | unable | Can achieve self-balance |
| Whether isolated network operation | unable | Lsolated network operation |
