The proposed standard specifies basic safety requirements for stationary use of lithium-ion batteries (hereinafter referred to as stationary batteries) approved as electrical vehicle batteries for road vehicles subject to the European regulation 2018/858 (hereinafter referred to as electrical vehicle batteries).
These electrical vehicle batteries have been approved for road vehicles (hereinafter referred to as homologation) and are to be put to new use in stationary applications. They can be used batteries as well as new batteries. In this case, the statutory regulations for batteries in stationary use shall be complied with.
The standard focuses on repurpose not on reuse of electric vehicle batteries. Aging aspects are not considered.
The present document makes reference to existing requirements for lithium-ion batteries from vehicle homologation and stationary applications. The standard compares requirements for electric vehicle batteries with requirements that allow a presumption of conformity for stationary batteries. On the basis of this, the standard provides information on which homologation requirements can be applied within the scope of the conformity assessment, or which additional requirements exist within the scope of a conformity assessment.
This standard is applicable to electric vehicle batteries consisting of at least several battery cells, one or more safety devices, a battery management system (BMS), a housing and external interfaces. This also includes electric vehicle batteries on which modifications have been made for stationary use that represent deviations from the vehicle homologation status. Requirements are defined that consider the safety of electric vehicle batteries during their complete life cycle – storage, transport, installation, operation, maintenance, disassembly and recycling.
However, the document does not cover the requirements for the complete battery energy storage systems (BESS) that use the electric vehicle batteries described here. These requirements are defined in other rules and regulations.
The document focuses on industrial applications that are not accessible to laymen. Home storage is not considered in this edition.
For special areas of application, further regulations and standards may have to be applied.
