GFV informal group draft of proposed amendments aimed at redefining the class of bi-fuel vehicles to permit the
simultaneous use of gas and petrol in gas mode. This draft was submitted to the Working Party on Pollution and Energy for its 63rd session as document GRPE-63-06.

This document is a working draft describing the complementary specifications to R49 (Revision 6-6 series of amendments) in order to enable the type approval of new EURO VI heavy duty dual-fuel engines and vehicles. The document is under review within the GFV.

Minutes of the meeting of the Informal Group on Gaseous Fuel Vehicles held jointly with the Heavy Duty Dual-Fuel Task Force.

Consolidated proposal from the GFV Task Force on Heavy-duty Dual-fuel vehicles for an amendment to Regulation No. 49 in view of type-approving such vehicles.

The proposed amendments are aimed at redefining the class of bi-fuel vehicles to permit the simultaneous use of gas and petrol in gas mode. This submission follows the review by CLEPA members of the draft proposal (GRPE/2012/6).

The current Euro 6 light duty vehicle emission limits for total hydrocarbons (THC)
include the methane fraction as well as non-methane hydrocarbon emissions. When the
Euro 5/6 co-decision proposal was negotiated, an NMHC limit value was added but the
THC limit was unchanged and is too restrictive.

Document GRPE/2012/13/Rev.1. contains all the major amendments to Regulation No. 49 that are considered necessary to type approve heavy-Duty dual-fuel engines and vehicles, except appendixes 3, 4, 5 and 6 of Annex 15. This document corrects typographic errors and cross-references in that proposal.

Revised version of document GRPE-62-17 prepared by the chair of the GFV informal group in order to extend the scope of Regulation No. 85 to include heavy-duty dual-fuel (diesel-gas) engines.

Working draft of the document consolidating working document GRPE/2012/13/Rev.1 with the pending informal documents GRPE-64-xx1 (completing the working document) and GRPE-64-xx2 (correcting the working document).

Document GRPE/2012/13/Rev.1. contains amendments to Regulation No. 49 considered necessary to type-approve heavy-duty dual-fuel engines and vehicles, except for appendixes 3, 4, 5 and 6 of Annex 15. This document provides the missing appendices and offers editorial corrections to UN R49.

Copy of the GRPE submission prepared by the GFV Chair of the informal group to correct a measurement error contained in documents GRPE/2012/6 (concerning UN R83) and GRPE/2012/7 (concerning UN R115) when weighing method and G25 reference fuel are used.

Documents GRPE/2012/6 and 7 introduce the calculation of NG/biomethane energy ratio during a type I cycle by weighing the NG/biomethane mass consumed. The formulas are affected by an error when G25 reference fuel is used. This proposal precribes a modification to the previous formulas.

Documents GRPE-63-05/Rev.1 and GRPE/2012/6/Rev.1 propose to redefine the class of bi-fuel vehicles to permit the simultaneous use of gas and petrol in gas mode in UN Regulation No. 83. CLEPA proposes an alternative method to the weighing procedure of the fuel consumption test procedure.
