INFORMATION STATEMENT
¿Cómo se podría traducir la expresión "verter energía a la red de distribución" en este contexto?
Desde la empresa se adoptan diversas medidas en materia de eficiencia y ahorro energético. Por ejemplo, mediante la utilización de plantas de cogeneración de alta eficiencia, que generan al mismo tiempo energía eléctrica ***que vierten a la red de distribución***, y energía térmica que se aprovecha en los procesos industriales, se consigue maximizar el rendimiento por unidad de combustible y reducir las pérdidas de transporte de la electricidad al generar cerca de los puntos de consumo.
¡Gracias!

feeds into the distribution network
Talking about combined heat and power systems eg see link for distribution network reference (distinct from transmission network)
https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/electricity/distribution-networks/c...
"Distributed generation (DG) is also known as embedded or dispersed generation. DG is electricity generating plant that is connected to a distribution network rather than the transmission network."
and

"The plant, located in northern Berlin, generates district heat with especially low environmental impact and feeds electricity into the distribution network."

flows into the distribution network
How electricity flows
Electrical engineers say that, in an electrical circuit, electricity flows one direction: out of the positive terminal of a battery and back into the negative terminal. Electronic technicians say that electricity flows the other direction: out of the negative terminal of a battery and back into the positive terminal.

: What is wrong with Althea's answer? Yes, electricity does flow, but this is about the electricity from wind generators being FED into the network which is a perfectly correct description.
