Proposal to align the 06 series of amendments to UN R83 with the full EU requirements for “social needs” vehicles. In the 06 series of amendments, emission compliance for social needs vehicles is based on M limits only, while in the EU, these vehicles can comply with N1 class 3 limits.

Proposed amendments to document GRPE/2013/9 regarding daylight running lamps and hydrogen balance in internal combustion versus fuel-cell vehicles.

Proposal from the GFV Informal Group. FC_mean, as defined in paragraphs 6.1.2.4.3.2. (LPG) and 6.2.2.4.3.2. (CNG) of UN Regulation No. 115, is the mean value of the fuel consumptions of all the parent (test) vehicles, whereas the calculation of the gas ratio has to be made individually for each parent vehicle.

Therefore, FC_mean has to be replaced by FC_norm as defined in UN R101.

This correction would align UN R115 with the corresponding provisions set out in UN R83

Text from the Informal Group on Gaseous Fuelled Vehicles in order to comply with a request by the GRSG. Amendments proposed by the LNG Task Force on incorporating LNG systems into Regulation 110 were approved by the 104th session of the GRSG (GRSG/2013/7). The German delegate, recognizing that potential methane release — venting from ‘boil off’ — is an environmental issue suggested that the issue of holding time for LNG and its venting be brought forward to the GRPE.

Document GRPE/2013/11 presents the EC proposal to integrate Euro 6 provisions into UN R83. This presentation covers the work that went into this proposal and its implications for UN R101 and R103.

Document GRPE/2013/7 was prepared to modify the 05 series of amendments of UN R49 (Euro V) in order to extend the pollutant emission requirements to dual-fuel heavy duty engines and vehicles. Per agreement with GRPE, this document proposes amendments to the 05 series based on the latest GFV work.

Information provided to GRPE at the request of GRSG to explain the nature of LNG container venting as a safety precaution responding to LNG boil-off effects on pressure levels.
