    Incremental Refresh and Scheduled Refresh are not directly related.

    Scheduled refresh requires a gateway to refresh the data.
    Incremental Refresh simply partitions the data out so when you perform a scheduled refresh the refresh is faster because only current data (last 5 days, 3 months, 2 quarters, whatever you specify) are refreshed and anything older is kept in the cloud, never needing to be refreshed again. The service will eventually drop off old data, again, depending on your settings. You could retain 2 years, 5 years, or 50 years.

     

    And if you need a gateway to refresh, then that VM has to be running.
