The 42nd IWG on A-LCA session met to review the document package for GRPE submission. The group discussed three submission options: a working document with open issues; agreed provisions only with open issues in a separate informal document; or agreed provisions only with open issues remaining within the IWG. No final decision was taken. Further discussions are required on Pre-consumer Scrap, Chain of Custody, Electricity Modelling, OVC-HEV, FCV, Battery and Powertrain Replacement. A dedicated electricity modelling meeting will be held on 30 June 2026, and the 43rd session is confirmed for 6 July 2026.
