IEC ELECTRIC VEHICLE STANDARDS

SESSION ONE:
Application and Implementation of the TC 69: Improving product performance, charging effect & safety by applying IEC global EV standards

SESSION TWO:
Open forum to discuss current & future standards for EV performance, safety, charging & construction. Participants will be able to feedback their requirement & opinions on IEC design standards for motor, driver, battery and charging components

SESSION THREE:
Introduction & explanation of IEC TC 69 global EV standards

• Current global EV standardization progress
• Regional & international differences in EV standards: challenges & solutions in coordinating with other standard societies to achieve real harmonization

YOUR WORKSHOP LEADER:

Mr. Peter Van Den Bossche, Secretary of TC 69, IEC

Peter Van den Bossche is currently lecturer at the Erasmus University College Brussels and the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. For more than 15 years, he has been active in several international standardization committees, currently acting as Secretary of IEC TC69. He has been closely involved in electric vehicle research and demonstration programmes in collaboration with the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and the international associations AVERE and CITELEC, and is now coordinating research projects on battery modelling, always observing the link to standardization development in the field.

Besides his professional involvement into electricity, Peter is strongly involved in the conservation of our architectural and industrial heritage, particularly in his home town Mechelen, Belgium.
