International Standards are a powerful tool for disseminating new technologies and good practices, developing global markets and supporting the harmonisation of government policies on energy efficiency and renewable sources on a global scale.
Earlier this year, Western Power Distribution, a DNO, signed a contract with RES (a renewable energy company) to deliver an energy storage system co-located with a 1.5MW solar farm. This project aims to demonstrate the network services "solar + storage" can provide behind-the-meter to the owner and operator of the solar farm and to DNOs.
The TC is working on a new standard, IEC 62933‑5‑4, which will specify safety test methods and procedures for li-ion battery-based systems for energy storage. IECEE (IEC System of Conformity Assessment Schemes for Electrotechnical Equipment and Components) is one of the four conformity assessment systems administered by the IEC.
One way of ensuring continuous and sufficient access to electricity is to store energy when it is in surplus and feed it into the grid when there is an extra need for electricity. EES systems maximize energy generation from intermittent renewable energy sources. maintain power quality, frequency and voltage in times of high demand for electricity.
