    So, for dashboards, there is no on-premises publishing solution that I am aware of. There are 2 on-premises solutions for publishing in general however, Pyramid Analytics Server (don't really know much about it) and the new (upcoming) feature of SQL Server 2016 Reporting Services. There is also Power BI Embedded but not sure if that would work for you in your circumstance as it is also essentially cloud-based.

Hi iversa,

If you want to integrate Power BI reports into your .Net application, you would need to use Microsoft Power BI Embedded feature, there is an example in this article: Get started with Power BI Embedded sample.

If you just want to host Power BI reports in On-premises BI service, as smoupre’s post, use Pyramid Analytics Server and the new feature of SQL Server 2016 Reporting Services. You can check the following blogs to get more details.
