4 FAQs about Photovoltaic support process standards

What are the regulatory levels for photovoltaic systems?

At least three regulatory levels for the production and installation of photovoltaic systems can be considered. Additionally, the Life Cycle Assessment methodology is also regulated by standards. In this chapter, the three levels are presented.

What standards are available for the energy rating of PV modules?

Standards available for the energy rating of PV modules in different climatic conditions, but degradation rate and operational lifetime need additional scientific and standardisation work (no specific standard at present). Standard available to define an overall efficiency according to a weighted combination of efficiencies.

What are the requirements for regulating PV system design and battery function?

To regulate PV system design and battery function, the following standards are recommended: IEC 62124 for stand-alone PV system design and PV performance evaluation, including battery testing and recovery after periods of low state-of-charge in various climatic conditions, and IEC 62509 for battery charge controllers.

What are the requirements for large PV power plants?

Large PV power plants (i.e., greater than 20 MW at the utility interconnection) that provide power into the bulk power system must comply with standards related to reliability and adequacy promulgated by authorities such as NERC and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
