Nemko Scheme for Field Evaluation of EES (Electrical Energy Storage) systems
An Electrical Energy Storage (EES) system helps to balance the demand and supply of electricity by storing excess energy when production exceeds consumption and releasing it when the demand is higher than the current production. EES systems are essential for integrating renewable energy sources like solar and wind into the power grid, as they can store the intermittent energy these sources produce and release it steadily as needed. They also play a crucial role in improving grid stability and power quality and reducing the need for fossil fuel-based peak power plants. EES systems play a crucial role in the green transition.
Why is testing and verification of EES systems important?
Regardless of the intended use/function of the system, testing and verification at different stages is a critical part of the ESS development and commissioning. To include a third party in the process helps in several areas:
Quality Assurance
Ensures the EES meets all agreed-upon specifications and functions correctly.
Verification of Specifications
Ensures the EES meets the detailed specifications and operates as intended in its actual installation environment.
System Integration
Ensures that the EES is properly integrated with other systems and peripherals, which is essential for smooth operation.
Compliance with Standards
Verifies compliance with relevant standards and interconnection requirements, which may include safety, performance, and reliability.
Operational Reliability
Allows potential issues to be identified and rectified before the system becomes fully operational, thereby reducing future operational risks.
How Nemko can help you
Nemko provides high-quality verification of the EES system to ensure that it is safe, reliable and meets the criteria for successful operation. Verification is performed according to international IEC standards. Nemko provides a report that can be presented to local authorities before putting the system into operation (in some countries, local authorities require third-party verification of the EES system).
