IEC/TC 117 - Solar thermal electric plants
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.
Centrales électriques solaires thermodynamiques
Etablir des normes internationales pour les systèmes de centrales électriques solaires thermodynamiques de conversion de l’énergie solaire thermodynamique en énergie électrique et pour tous les éléments (y compris tous les sous-systèmes et composants) du système complet de l’énergie thermodynamique solaire. Les normes couvriront tous les différents types de systèmes usuels dans le domaine des énergies thermodynamiques solaires, selon la liste suivante: - Réflecteur parabolique; - Tour solaire; - Miroir de Fresnel; - Parabole; - Stockage thermodynamique. Les normes définiront la terminologie, les exigences de conception et d’installation, les techniques de mesure de performance et les méthodes d’essai, les exigences de sécurité, la ‘qualité énergétique’, résultant des systèmes ci-dessus. Les normes aborderont également les questions de connectivité et d’interopérabilité avec le réseau électrique lié aux connexions, aux communications bidirectionnelles et contrôle centralisé (Smart Grid), et aux aspects environnementaux.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Technical Committee (TC) in ISO is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
