6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Solar Collector Quality Standards”

How to determine the thermal performance of solar collectors?

structure in a way that is deemed to result in decrease of thermal performance. Two generically different methods/ approaches are available in the standard to determine the thermal performance of solar collectors: The Steady state method and the Quasi dynamic method, hereafter generally abbreviated SS and QDT.

How are solar thermal collectors selected?

The solar thermal collectors being submitted for tests must be selected randomly by the designated representative of test laboratory or certification body (this is compulsory for certification according to the Solar Keymark Scheme rules but not a mandatory part of the standard).

What is the standard uncertainty in solar collector efficiency values?

For further information, see section 7.7. The overall standard uncertainty in solar collector efficiency values determined by an accredited test laboratory is about 3 %. The uncertainty in calculated energy gain is even higher and could exceed 10 % depending on the operating temperature and test method applied.

Which standards apply to collectors?

Standards applying to collectors are the most advanced, currently several standards exist at international level. Historically, a US ASHRAE standard (93-77) was the first to be widely used. Then the ISO 9806 series of standards was developed and from this, the European standard series EN 12975.

Which collector types can get a Solar keymark certificate?

At present, only collector types covered by the EN 12975 standard can obtain a Solar Keymark certificate. The most recent types added to the list of collector types are tracking concentrating collectors and the thermal part of PVT collectors.

What are the European standards for solar thermal systems and components?

18 This is becoming relevant in the European market, under the EN 12977-3 (hot water stores) and EN12977-4 (combistores) standard. The major standards for testing solar thermal systems and components are listed below19.
