PCR description

This c-PCR was updated 2025-04-22 with editorial changes and a prolonged validity until 2028-01-02.

This is a complementary PCR (c-PCR) and further specification of PCR 2019:14 Construction products, to be used for the assessment of the environmental performance of components of photovoltaic (PV) power plants, specifically invertors, battery energy storage systems, combiner boxes and tracker systems, and the declaration of this performance by an EPD following EN 15804:A2.

Components of PV power plants covered by this PCR are invertors, battery energy storage systems, combiner boxes and tracker systems . Only such products intended for PV power plants are included in the scope.

The scope of the PCR corresponds to subsets of UN CPC subclasses 461, 462, 463 and 464.

Note that the PCR does not cover PV modules and other parts/components than those listed above. PV modules, and parts such as cell, wafer, ingot block, solar grade silicon, solar substrates, solar superstrates and other solar grade semiconductor materials, are instead are covered by c-PCR-016.

Note that the PCR does not cover entire PV power plants, which are covered by PCR 2007:08 Electricity, steam and hot/cold water generation and distribution.
