Europe – Sungrow has secured the coveted European standard EN 50549-10 certification from TÜV Rheinland. This distinction marks a groundbreaking step as the first European grid connection compatibility certification for megawatt-grade high-power energy storage systems (ESS).
The EN 50549-10 certification is a recent addition to Europe’s regulatory landscape, introduced in August 2023. It builds upon the framework established by EN50549-2, which outlines requirements for harmonious integration of power plants with medium-voltage distribution networks. This new standard meticulously outlines the test requisites for energy storage systems (ESS) across critical domains including Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT) and High Voltage Ride Through (HVRT), frequency tolerance, power quality, reactive power voltage support, fault voltage support, and continuous zero-current grid connection. The core objective is to fortify the stability and the high-quality power delivery within Europe’s public power grids.
