Naming rules for photovoltaic inverters

Support to the ongoing preparatory activities on the feasibility of applying the Ecodesign, EU Energy label, EU Ecolabel and Green Public Procurement (GPP) policy instruments to solar photovoltaic (PV) modules, inverters and PV systems. Identify functional parameters. Identify, describe and compare for each product category.

mandatory instruments such as Eco-Design measures for photovoltaic panels and inverters, augmented by the use of the Energy Label for residential PV systems, and voluntary instruments such as Green Public.

PV BOS and Installation Projects currently in progress: IEC 61727: Characteristics of the Utility Interface. IEC 62109: Safety of Static Inverters. IEC 62116: Testing procedure of Islanding Prevention Methods for Utility-Interactive Photovoltaic Inverters.

Eco-Design and Energy Labeling for Photovoltaic Modules, Inverters and Systems – Enabling a Sustainable Value Chain in the EU? ETIP PV, SolarPower Europe, PVthin, European Solar Manufacturing Council, IECRE Article complementing the presentation delivered at the 38th EU PVSEC Conference 2021 Session reference 4DO.11.1.

Herein, an innovative methodology in support of a potential energy-labeling scheme for both PV modules and PV systems (installations) is proposed. The estimated annual and lifetime yields for a PV module and system respectively are used as parameters for classification from A (best) to G (worst) in the proposed scheme.

6 FAQs about [Naming rules for photovoltaic inverters]

Can a name plate be inside a photovoltaic inverter?

The name plate may be inside the photovoltaic inverter only if the name plate is visible once a door is opened in normal use. This International Standard describes data sheet and name plate information for photovoltaic inverters in grid parallel operation. The object of this standard is to provide minimum information...

What is the international standard for photovoltaic inverters?

This International Standard describes data sheet and name plate information for photovoltaic inverters in grid parallel operation. The object of this standard is to provide minimum information required to configure a safe and optimal system with photovoltaic inverters.

Should photovoltaic modules and inverters be eco-design requirements?

s the policy recommendation on the introduction of eco-design requirements for photovoltaic modules and inverters in the EU. These future requirements should be based on standards, which determine the service life, energy y

What is the consolidated version of the photovoltaic inverter standard?

The object of this standard is to provide minimum information required to configure a safe and optimal system with photovoltaic inverters. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (2014) and its amendment 1 (2016). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.

What are ecodesign requirements for the durability of PV inverters?

The formulation of Ecodesign requirements for the durability of PV inverters could follow an approach conceptually similar to the one used for PV modules. The design qualification of inverters according to test sequence set out in IEC 62093 is proposed as a minimum requirement.

Should PV modules be regulated?

cluded that the best way to further regulate PV modules was via a combination of mandatory and voluntary policy instruments. This scenario evaluation considered mandatory instruments such as Eco-Design measures for photovoltaic modules and inverters, augmented by
