7. The Chair of IWG EVS, on behalf of the co-sponsors (China, Japan, United States of America, European Union) and of the members of IWG GTR No. 20, Phase 2, reported that WP.29 and AC.3 at their March 2024 sessions had agreed to extend the IWG mandate until March 2025 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1177, paragraphs 52 and 149). The expert from Japan offered to host the next IWG meeting during the first week of September 2024 in his country and requested GRSP experts to contact the IWG Chair.

8. The expert from CLEPA introduced GRSP-75-15 which aligns the UN GTR with the specific text of UN Regulation No. 100 (Electric power trained vehicles), that clarifies specific conditions for a clear interpretation of an AC voltage (rms). The GRSP Chair, who is also the IWG Chair, will inform the IWG of this proposal, but stated that the IWG will prioritize its Thermal Propagation work in the immediate future. The IWG may consider taking this issue up in future phases, provided that a Contracting Party sponsors this issue.
