What is BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 about ?
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 is part 2-1 of IEC 62932 that details performance requirements and test methods for flow battery energy systems for stationary applications which enhances the energy storage and performance capabilities.
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 specifies methods of test and requirements for the flow battery system (FBS) and the flow battery energy system (FBES) for the verification of their performances.
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 is applicable to FBES or FBS which are designed and used for service in stationary locations (i.e., not generally to be moved from place to place).
Note: BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 does not apply to testing of the system for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
Who is BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 for ?
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 on performance requirements and test methods for flow battery energy systems is applicable to:
- Manufacturers of battery system equipment
- Energy storage consulting services
- Testing houses and laboratories for batteries
- Research and development institutions for batteries
Why should you use BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 ?
A flow battery is a variant of electrochemical cell in which electrolyte flows through one or more electrochemical cells through tanks. Performance requirements for flow battery energy systems ensure scalability, low self-discharge, long life cycle and low setup costs.
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 provides you guidance on performance requirements for battery management system (BMS), battery support system (BSS) and power conversion system (PCS) which simplifies the set-up of robust and cost-effective flow battery system.
BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 provides you guidance on test methods for different metrics such as energy at constant power, maximum deliverable output power, maximum receivable input power, energy efficiency at constant power level which allows you to enhance the performance and energy output of flow battery energy system.
Guidance in BS EN IEC 62932‑2‑1 enables you to setup flow battery energy systems that enhances energy storage, longevity and performance in energy applications.
