BAIC — Voluntary Standards

158 Chapter 13 —Cont’d (SAE International, 2014). By the time of this printing, this list will already be outdated so I strongly recommend that you check out SAE’s Web site to find the latest and the greatest in the areas of your interest. International Organization for Standardization The ISO was formed in 1947 and is another global organization that is focused on creating voluntary industry standards.

Where the SAE is focused on only automotive, aerospace, and commercial vehicle industries, ISO has a much wider focus including health, sustainable development, food, water, cars, climate change, energy efficiency and renewables, and services (International Organization for Standardization, 2014). ISO standards tend to be a bit more expensive to purchase than SAE generally costing between several hundred to several thousand dollars to acquire a single standard.

The ISO standards are also developed by a group of industry experts who work with a technical SAE Standard Standard Title Objective J2991 (WIP) Range Test Protocol for PEV (Plug-In This test protocol is being developed to create a Electric Vehicles) Small Task Oriented voluntary guideline for manufacturers of PEV STOV’s Vehicles (STOV) to use to validate the range of their vehicles. The intent is to develop a laboratory test protocol for range testing that is repeatable and can be conducted using common dynamometer testing facilities. J3097 (WIP) Standards for Battery Secondary Use To develop standards for a testing and identity regimen to define batteries for variable safe reuse.

Utilize existing or in process standards such as Transportation, Labeling and State of Health. Add to these reference standards the required informa- tion to provide a safe and reliable usage. J3004(WIP) Standardization of Battery Packs for Identify existing standards and provide recommen- Electric and Hybrid Trucks and Busses dations on design criteria and future standardiza- tion opportunities for battery packs on electric and hybrid truck and bus applications.

J3009 (WIP) Stranded Energy—Reporting and The intent of this document is to consider the type of Extraction from Vehicle Electrochemi- information reported by the battery management cal Storage Systems system (BMS) and recommended discharge level dependent on a collision or vehicle frie. The document does not describe how the energy should be extracted.

J3012 (WIP) Storage Batteries—Lithium-Ion Type This document will focus on (1) product and functional definitions that describe the uniqueness and similarity of lithium-based technology versus conventional lead acid, and (2) development of new test procedures for performance and life cycle evaluation to establish new baseline for future nonconventional storage technology.
