Marine energy. Wave, tidal and other water current converters -- River energy resource assessment
This part of IEC 62600 provides:
Methodologies that ensure consistency and accuracy in the determination of the theoretical river energy resource at sites that may be suitable for the installation of River Energy Converters (RECs);
Methodologies for producing a standard current speed distribution based on measured, historical, or numerical data, or a combination thereof, to be used in conjunction with an appropriate river energy power performance assessment;
Allowable data collection methods and/or modelling techniques; and
A framework for reporting results.
The document explicitly excludes:
Technical or practical resource assessments;
Resource characterisation;
Power performance assessment of river energy converters; and
Environmental impact studies, assessments, or similar.
