The solar industry very much welcomes the addition of guidance on solar PV to the National Policy Statement for renewable energy infrastructure. However, there are several provisions which could be strengthened, which we have outlined below.
At least three regulatory levels for the production, installation, operation and end of life 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.
First, to regulate system design and battery function: IEC 62124 for stand-alone PV system design recommendations and PV performance evaluation (including battery testing and recovery after periods of low state-of-charge) in a variety of climatic conditions, and IEC 62509 for battery charge controllers.
Developers are consistently pushed to limit export capacity from solar generating stations, and the policy statement confirming this is inappropriate is welcomed and essential to support the delivery of net zero by allowing installations to maximise installed capacity and account for improving technology. 2.48.7.
There are currently 169 published IEC standards by TC-82 related to photovoltaic technology, and work is in progress for 69 more (new ones or revisions). This set of standards is the most broadly used by the scientific community and technicians in research centres and companies.
However, the principles of solar PV measurement, performance and management discussed in this Guide can be applied, with caution, to other forms and scales of solar PV array, and indeed other renewable power generation technologies.
