6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Industry standards for photovoltaic cell modules”

What are China's changes to photovoltaic manufacturing standards?

SUN KAIFANG/FOR CHINA DAILY China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has announced revisions to photovoltaic manufacturing industry standards, addressing current challenges like businesses' repetitive expansion of low-level production capacity and falling profitability, to promote the PV industry's healthier development.

Why are international standards important in the photovoltaic industry?

ABSTRACT: International standards play an important role in the Photovoltaic industry. Since PV is such a global industry it is critical that PV products be measured and qualified the same way everywhere in the world. IEC TC82 has developed and published a number of module and component measurement and qualification standards.

What's new in PV standards?

Limited the documents applicability to PV modules rated for 1500 V or less maximum system voltage. Provides details on how to qualify modules at all voltages up to 1500 V. Added restrictions that this standard does not cover PV modules that incorporate electronics. This will be the subject of a new standard that is now in development.

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.

How are photovoltaic modules regulated?

The production of photovoltaic modules in the United States is regulated by the federal Clean Air (1970) and Clean Water (1972) Acts, which apply to any industrial production.

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.
