BS EN IEC 62932‑1 is the first part of a multi-series standard. It details terminology and general aspects that ensure standardization of vocabulary, low setup costs and longevity of flow battery energy systems for stationary applications.
BS EN IEC 62932‑1 relates to flow battery energy systems (FBES) used in electrical energy storage (EES) applications and provides the main terminology and general aspects of this technology, including terms necessary for the definition of unit parameters, test methods, safety and environmental issues.
BS EN IEC 62932‑1 on flow battery energy systems for stationary applications applies to:
A flow battery is a variant of electrochemical cell in which electrolyte flows through one or more electrochemical cells through tanks. Implementation of general requirements for flow battery energy systems ensure low self-discharge, long life cycle and low setup costs.
BS EN IEC 62932‑1 provides you guidance on terms, definitions and abbreviated terms that ensures standardization of vocabulary on all fronts of the flow battery energy system value chain for effective communication.
BS EN IEC 62932‑1 provides you diagrams of flow battery system (FBS) and flow battery energy system (FBES) and their component descriptions and boundaries that facilitate effective setup practices ensuring the operational safety and integrity of these energy systems.
The guidance in BS EN IEC 62932‑1 ensures standardization of vocabulary that is in compliance with international norms and lays out general requirements which enable effective setup of flow battery energy systems ensuring their safety and performance.
