Proposal from GRSP to update provisions in line with the 03 series of amendments to UN R100, introduce optional requirements to enable the mounting of removable REESS in any orientation in order to enable safe deployment of swappable batteries, and correct the numbering of the explanatory notes to the new definition “specific voltage condition” in paragraph 2.47.
24. The expert from IMMA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/22, aimed at updating the requirements for electric vehicles of category L by aligning them to UN GTR No. 20. He also added that the proposal was including new optional requirements to enable the mounting of removable Rechargeable Electric Energy Storage System (REESS) in any orientation, that would enable safe deployment of swappable batteries. GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2021/22 as amended by annex VII to the report (GRSP-70-24). The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 136 (Electric vehicle L) for consideration and vote at the June 2022 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
