Executive Summary
D8.1 “Report on the standardization landscape and applicable standards” collects the
information on the state of the art in standardization relevant for HYCOOL. This analysis of the
standardization landscape includes the information on the relevant standards (both, published
and under-development) and the relevant standardization technical committees.
The objective of the deliverable is to provide the consortium with the proper knowledge of the
standardization landscape at an early stage in order this information can be taken into account
in the development of the different working packages as starting material, facilitating the use
of existing knowledge and ensuring the compatibility and the interoperability of the results. It
is based in the standardization fields of interest identified by HYCOOL and the subsequent
identification and analysis of related standards and standardization technical committees.
D8.1 is the first deliverable of the Task 8.1 “Standardization” and will conform the basis for
further steps towards the consideration of the results of HYCOOL in future standards
contributing to the market acceptance of the developed solutions.
The Spanish Association for Standardization, recently called UNE, and previously called AENOR,
as National Standardization Body (NSB), member of CEN-CENELEC is member of HYCOOL to
provide support regarding the standardization tasks included in the project (WP8-Exploitation,
Standardization and Training).

1. Introduction
1.1 Summary and scope
The purpose of this report D.8.1 is to provide information on the standardization landscape
and applicable standards relevant for the HYCOOL project. It has the ambition to provide
starting information for the work packages ensuring compatibility and interoperability with
already existing solutions by identifying existing standards and standards under development
at European and international levels as well as the relevant standardization technical
committees in the fields of wave energy converters and identified related fields.
The project is co-funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme, started on 1st of May 2018 and runs for three years. It brings together 16
partners from 6 different European countries including an energy and environmental service
company, two engineering and architecture companies, two providers of solar steam and
energy generation systems, four R&D entities, one manufacturer of absorption chillers, two
implementation companies in the food and cosmetic market, three R&D marketing and
commercialisation companies and a standardization body.
The standardization bodies operate at National (UNE, AS, UNI, DIN, etc.), Regional (CEN,
CENELEC, ETSI) or International (ISO, IEC, ITU) level. Sometimes there are different
standardization bodies at the same level, but covering different fields. This is the case of ISO
(general), IEC (electrical) and ITU (telecommunications) at International level, or CEN, CENELEC
and ETSI at European level in the same way. At European level, all the members of CEN and
CENELEC shall adopt EN standards as national standards and have to withdraw any existing
national standard which could conflict with them.

hycool Solar Cooling Systems
There are also different kinds of standardization documents. The most widespread is the
standard, which has a different code depending on the organization under it was developed;
e.g. EN for European Standards, ISO or IEC for International standards. Other types of
documents are Technical Specifications (TS), Technical Reports (TR) and Workshop Agreements
(CWA). Further Amendments to the standards are identified by adding A1, A2, etc. at the end
of the standard code. A summary of the characteristics of the different standardization
documents can be found in the following table 1.

Type National code Main characteristics

National Standard
(e.g. UNE-EN ISO 14001)
ISO/CEN members can decide if an ISO standard will be adopted at national level or not. It is
also possible to have an ISO standard and a different national standard on the same topic.
However a European Standard becomes automatically a National Standard in the CEN
members (one European Standard replaces 34 national standards). CEN can adopt an ISO
standard identically (and vice versa), therefore it keeps the same numbering, and the EN ISO
standard will become then a national standard in the CEN members. Also an ISO/CEN member
can propose a national standard to become an ISO/CEN standard. All ISO/CEN members are
encouraged to participate and contribute actively in the development of an ISO/CEN standard
so that the resulting standard is aligned with the national needs.
The code of any standard is the combination of the above mentioned issues, and could be
explained as shown in figure 2:

• Introduction: contains an overview of this document, providing its Scope, Audience,
and Structure
• Methodology: details the methodology used for the drafting of this report
2. Methodology
The standardization environment relevant for HYCOOL project has been identified following
the sequence:
1. A list of relevant topics for the standardization analysis was prepared addressing the
project with a wide approach in order to capture as much potentially relevant
standardization areas as possible, not focussing only in the hybrid system based on
solar heat and its application to industrial cooling but including also other topics that
can have an impact in the overall project.
2. The list of potential topics was delivered to the HYCOOL partners for reviewing and
validating which resulted in the list of significant standardization areas included in
Table 2.

3. HYCOOL partners were asked to identify from this list the items more closely related to
their tasks and objectives in the project. The items indicated in italics were the ones
that had the least interest. The above areas were reorganized in 10 topics, so as to
have a clearer approach and better fit with the Work packages.
Relevant Topics
1 Solar Energy, systems and plants
2 Material performance: corrosion, and superconductivity
3 Heat pumps and boilers
5. The result of this analysis is the content of chapter 3, organized in the 10 relevant
topics
The standardization study covers both, the European (CENELEC and CEN) and international (IEC
and ISO) standardization systems including amendments and corrigendum. The study is
structured in standardization areas for which relevant published and under development
standards and the pertinent standardization technical committees (TCs) are identified.
12
hycoolSolar Cooling Systems
In some of the topics is it possible to find subjects covered by international standards (from IEC
and ISO), by European standards (coming from CENELEC and CEN) or both. Referring to this
last case, if a subject is covered by a European and an international standard, those standards
can be identical or not, depending on whether there is any specific European requirement on
the subject. When a European and an international standard exist for a subject, the standard
can be listed below in two different ways:
A “*” in the reference of the standard means that there are two standards for the
subject, a European standard and an international standard. Only the European
standard is showed to avoid duplication.
A Standard containing “EN IEC” or “EN ISO” in its reference means that there is one
standard applicable to both, European and international environments.
The status of the standards is provided for each reference allowing to acknowledge if the
standard is:
Under revision: the standard is published but related work (an amendment or
a new version) is under development
For electrotechnical standards it is common that the current version of a standard coexists for
some time with a former version to facilitate the transition to stakeholders. The information
below refers to the latest versions of the standards.

So far, there are not any European/ international standards related to installation of solar
collectors on a roof, or installation details over the grass.
A further research will be carried out whenever the report will be updated, in order to include
standards related to the support of high pressure steam pipes and vessels, if any relevant.
Scope “To prepare international standards for systems of Solar Thermal Electric (STE)
plants for the conversion of solar thermal energy into electrical energy and for all the
elements (including all sub-systems and components) in the entire STE energy system.
The standards would cover all of the current different types of systems in the STE field,
as follows:- Parabolic trough - Solar tower - Linear Fresnel – Dish - Thermal storage
The standards would define terminology, design and installation requirements,
performance measurement techniques and test methods, safety requirements,
"power quality" issues for each of the above systems. The standards would also
address issues of connectivity and interoperability with the power grid related to
connections, bi-directional communicates and centralized control (Smart Grid) and
environmental aspects”.
Scope “Scope Standardization in the field of solar energy utilization in space and water
heating, cooling, industrial process heating and air conditioning.”
- In addition to the above there are two TC about Solar Photovoltaic energy systems

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 in2 a-f.
Note: grid: electricity supply network (ISO/IEC 15067-3)
smart grid: 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 electricity exchange
point of view.
Unidirectional energy storage systems such as UPS are not included in the scope of TC
120. The scope of TC 120 is to prepare normative documents dealing with the system
aspects of EES Systems.

When undertaking the different tasks in the project above mentioned standards are to be
considered to take into account existing accepted criteria and to ensure compatibility with
current technologies in the different fields.
Next steps in Task 8.1 “Standardization” are aiming to contribute to the dissemination of the
results of HYCOOL and to transfer those results to future standards. This will be done through
the standardization committees relevant for HYCOOL which are compiled in the next table:
