Standard on the use of solar energy

In the recently adopted Serbian standard SRPS EN ISO 9488, Solar energy - Vocabulary, terms and definitions deal with this area of ​​solar radiation measurement and solar energy use technology.

Since the previous version, published internationally in 1999, there have been significant changes caused by the development of solar photovoltaic technologies and solar thermal technologies.
