Standards for flow batteries
In 2010, the organising committee for the first IFBF conference identified the need to develop standards to support the growing flow battery industry. As a result, several companies and individuals formed a CENELEC workshop and CWA 50611: Flow batteries – Guidance on the specification, installation and operation was published in April 2013.
BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE TESTING FOR GRID STANDARD
Typically battery manufacturers only run life cycle tests at 100% or 80% of energy capacity. However utility cycles can also involve depth of discharge cycling that mix moderate (20-30%) depth of discharge combined with many small (<1%) depth of discharge events. Partial state of charge test patterns must be used to augment the full scale depth
