DANSK DS/IEC/TS 62600-200 PDF

This Technical Specification provides: - A systematic methodology for evaluating the power performance of tidal current energy converters (TECs) that produce electricity for utility scale and localized grids; - A definition of TEC rated power and rated water velocity; - A methodology for the production of the power curves for the TECs in consideration; - A framework for the reporting of the results. Exclusions to the scope of the Technical Specification are as follows: - Tidal Energy Converters (TECs) that provide forms of energy other than electrical energy unless the other form is an intermediary step that is converted into electricity by the TEC; - Resource Assessment. This will be carried out in the Tidal Energy Resource Characterization and Assessment Technical Specification (62600-201); - Scaling of any measured or derived results; - Power quality issues; - Any type of performance other than power and energy performance; - The combined effect of multiple TEC arrays.
