ČSN EN IEC 62282-8-301

This part of IEC 62282 specifies performance test methods of power-to-methane systems based on solid oxide cells (SOCs). Water, CO2, and electricity are supplied to the system to produce methane and oxygen. This document is not intended to be applied to solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cell/stack assembly units for power generation purposes only, since these are covered in IEC 62282-7-2. In addition, the test methods for SOC cell/stack assembly units including reversible operation (without any methanation reactor) are already described in IEC 62282-8-101. Users can substitute the selected test methods of this document with the equivalent test methods given in IEC 62282 8 101 (solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) to produce H2 only as well as SOFC operation mode and reversible mode) and in IEC 62282-7-2 (SOFC mode only).
