1   Scope

This part of IEC 62600 provides:
  • Methodologies that ensure consistency and accuracy in the determination of the theoretical river energy resource at sites that may be suitable for the installation of River Energy Converters (RECs);
  • Methodologies for producing a standard current speed distribution based on measured, historical, or numerical data, or a combination thereof, to be used in conjunction with an appropriate river energy power performance assessment;
  • Allowable data collection methods and/or modelling techniques; and
  • A framework for reporting results.
The document explicitly excludes:
  • Technical or practical resource assessments;
  • Resource characterisation;
  • Power performance assessment of river energy converters; and
  • Environmental impact studies, assessments, or similar.
