Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 The objective of this standard is to define a procedure to carry out initial performance evaluation of electrolyser stacks (ST) and electrolyser systems (ES).
2 Alkaline water electrolysers (AWE) and Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) are comparatively mature electrolyser technologies, and other technologies like Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) and Solid Oxide Electrolyser (SOEC) are still in the development stage. This standard is applicable only for AEM, AWE, and PEM electrolysers at present. Other technologies will be incorporated at a later stage once they reach an acceptable level of maturity at industrial-level hydrogen production applications.
