TC 120 - Electrical Energy Storage (EES) systems
1. Standardization in the field of grid integrated EES systems in order to support grid requirements. - TC 120 focuses on system aspects on EES systems rather than energy storage devices. - TC 120 investigates system aspects and the need for new standards for EES systems. -TC 120 also focuses on the interaction between EES systems and Electric Power Systems (EPS). 2. For the purpose of TC120, “grid” includes and is not limited to applications in: a) transmission grids b) distribution grids c) islanded grids d) customer installation It is also confirmed that TC120 can include “smart grid” Storage in railway systems is considered if it contributes as an EES system to the grid as referenced in 2 a) d). Note: Grid is a synonym for electricity supply network (ISO/IEC 15067-3) A smart grid is an electric power system that utilizes information exchange and control technologies, distributed computing and associated sensors and actuators, for purposes such as: - to integrate the behaviour and actions of the network users and other stakeholders - to efficiently deliver sustainable, economic and secure electricity supplies (IEV 617-04-13) 3. EES systems include any type of grid-connected EES systems which can both store electrical energy from a grid or any other source and provide electrical energy to a grid. By that feature it maintains the balance between electrical energy demand and supply over a period of time. TC 120 considers all storage technologies as long as they are capable to store and to discharge electrical energy. (Energy storage itself is not in the scope of the work.) Note: Thermal storage systems are included in the scope, only from the point of view of extracting and injection eletricity. Uninterruptible power systems only having that funxtion (UPS) and similar backup power souces are not included in the scope of TC 120. 4. The scope of TC 120 is to prepare normative documents dealing with the system aspects of EES systems. For example, TC 120 deals with defining unit parameters, testing methods, planning and installation, guide for environmental issues and system safety aspects.
Systèmes de stockage de l'énergie électrique
1. Normalisation dans le domaine des systèmes EES intégrés au réseau afin de répondre aux exigences du réseau. - Le TC 120 se concentre sur les aspects système des systèmes EES plutôt que sur les dispositifs de stockage d'énergie. - Le TC 120 étudie les aspects système et le besoin de nouvelles normes pour les systèmes EES. -Le TC 120 se concentre également sur l'interaction entre les systèmes EES et les systèmes d'alimentation électrique (EPS). 2. Pour les besoins du TC120, le terme "réseau" inclut et n'est pas limité aux applications dans : a) les réseaux de transmission b) les réseaux de distribution c) les réseaux insulaires d) l'installation du client Il est également confirmé que le TC120 peut inclure le "réseau intelligent". Le stockage dans le domaine des systèmes ferroviaires est pris en compte s'il contribue au réseau en tant que système EES, comme indiqué au point 2 a) d). Note : le réseau est un synonyme de réseau d'alimentation électrique (ISO/IEC 15067-3). Un réseau intelligent est un système d'alimentation électrique qui utilise des technologies d'échange d'informations et de contrôle, des systèmes informatiques distribués et des capteurs associés ainsi que des systèmes de gestion de l'énergie, dans le but : - d'intégrer le comportement et les actions des utilisateurs du réseau et des autres parties prenantes - fournir efficacement un approvisionnement en électricité durable, économique et sûr (IEV 617-04-13). 3. Les systèmes EES comprennent tous les types de systèmes EES raccordés au réseau qui peuvent à la fois stocker de l'énergie électrique provenant d'un réseau ou de toute autre source et fournir de l'électricité. Cette caractéristique permet de maintenir l'équilibre entre l'offre et la demande d'énergie électrique pendant une période donnée. Le TC 120 prend en compte toutes les technologies de stockage pour autant qu'elles soient capables de stocker et de décharger de l'énergie électrique (Le stockage d'énergie lui-même ne fait pas partie du champ d'application des travaux). Note : Les systèmes de stockage thermique sont inclus dans le champ d'application, uniquement du point de vue de l'extraction et de l'injection d'électricité. Les systèmes d'alimentation sans interruption n'ayant que cette fonction (UPS) et les sources d'alimentation de secours similaires ne sont pas inclus dans le champ d'application du TC 120. 4. Le domaine d'application du TC 120 est de préparer des documents normatifs traitant des aspects système des systèmes EES. Par exemple, le TC 120 traite de la définition des paramètres des unités, des méthodes d'essai, de la planification et de l'installation, du guide des questions environnementales et des aspects de sécurité du système.
General Information
IEC TR 62933-2-201:2024 focuses on the necessity of using repurpose and reuse batteries in BESS.

IEC TS 62933-3-3:2022 provides requirements, guidelines and references when EES systems are designed, controlled and operated for energy intensive, islanded grid and backup power supply applications. In energy intensive applications, the EES system provides long charge and discharge phases at variable powers to the supported grid or user equipment. In islanded operation, the EES system provides energy to the islanded grid and coordinates other power generation systems in the islanded grid. In backup power supply and emergency support, the EES system provides energy to the internal grid or a set of emergency loads when the main grid power supply is not available.

IEC TR 62933-2-200:2021(E) presents a case study of electrical energy storage (EES) systems located in electric vehicle (EV) charging stations with photovoltaic (PV) power generation (PV-EES-EV charging stations) with a voltage level of 20 kV and below. EES systems are highlighted in this document because they are a desired option to make the charging stations (especially the high-power fast charging stations) grid-friendly, improve the self-consumption of clean energy generation, and increase the revenue of stations. In this application, EES systems show excellent performance by running in a variety of available operating modes, such as peak shaving, power smoothing, load tracing, time-of-use (TOU) price arbitrage, and ancillary services. The general duty cycle is recommended based on the summary of the operation characteristics of the EES systems.
