charges dispersées géographiquement

It refers to rural locations where the points of energy consumption are relatively isolated, which makes the cost of energy transmission (power lines) disporortionately high in a conventional network.

No! "emises" is wrong in this context.
agree Daryo : "scattered" in space (geographically) makes far more sense than "scattered" in time (another possible interpretation)

En matière d’électricité, l’équilibre national entre offre et demande est d’ores et déjà
impacté par des moyens de production décentralisés et des outils de modulation de
charges diffuses raccordés au réseau de distribution public. Leur utilisation active et
coordonnée devient en conséquence un besoin croissant pour gérer cet équilibre."
