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.

Request to continue development, through a second phase following adoption of the current draft GTR, of the light vehicle emissions and fuel consumption test cycle in order to improve certain technical aspects in the current cycle.

Corrigendum to the text prepared by the European Commission to align the requirements of Regulation No. 83 with those of European Union Regulation (EC) Nos. 715/2007, 692/2008, 566/2011, 459/2012 and 630/2012.

Report and draft text for the implementation of GTR No. 15 (WLTP) in EU law (via EU Regulation No 692/2008).

Explanatory presentation on EU plans for the integration of the new light vehicle emissions global technical regulation into EU law.

European Commission presentation reviewing the issues involved with transposing GTR 15 into EU emissions and fuel consumption regulations and into UN R83 and UN R101. The EC proposes that WP.29 should transpose GTR 15 into a new “WLTP UN Regulation” that would supersede UN R83 and UN R101.

Outline the next steps of WLTP informal working group for the development of electrified vehicle regulations, as supported by the European Commission, and suggestion of possible areas for collaboration with the informal working group on Electric Vehicles and the Environment (EVE).

Announcement and link to an EC survey seeking views on the impact of Regulation (EU) No 168/2013 with regard to benefits, costs and technical feasibility of the Euro 5 Environmental Step.

Proposal from the European Commission to provide clarifications and correct errors in the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83.

Proposal from the European Commission to provide clarifications and correct errors in the 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83.

Presentation of EU plans for new NRMM requirements pursuant to the revision of Directive 97/68/EC.

Regulation (EU) 2016/1628, also known as the NRMM Regulation or Stage V Regulation, restructures the EU regulation of non-road mobile machinery ranging from lawn mowers to snow mobiles to bulldozers, but excludes agricultural machinery (to be subjected to a separate EU regulation). In order to maintain the alignment between UN Regulations on emissions and EU emissions regulations, the EC proposes GRPE work on a new series of amendments to UN R96 (and by extension UN R120) for publication in 2018.

European Commission report on the effort to transpose the GTR on light vehicle emissions into UN type approval regulations, including handling of current UN Regulations on emissions (notably, UN R83 and UN R101) and process for implementing the WLTP requirements.

Presentation regarding the proposal for a 05 series of amendments to UN R96 to align the regulation with European Union emissions requirements for non-road mobile machinery.

Supplementary information on the proposal to align UN R96 with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

Proposal of a consolidated revision of UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

EC request for comments on the proposal for a 05 series of amendments to UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

Document GRPE/2018/3 presents a consolidated revision of UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery. This proposal presents editorial improvements and corrects the provision allowing contracting parties to require in-service monitoring of engines by explicitly excluding its application from the scope of the Regulation.

Proposal to align UN R132 with the proposed 05 series of amendments to Regulation No. 96.

Proposal to align UN R120 with the proposed 05 series of amendments to UN R96 (GRPE/2018/3).

EC proposals regarding the OICA proposal on the UN R49.06 ECU torque signal validation requirement and dual-fuel or flex-fuel vehicles.

Proposal of amendments to:

1. align the definitions for bi-fuel vehicles align with the new definitions in UN GTR 15,
2. amend paragraph 5.3.1.2.4. to recognize that particulate pollutant emissions measurements are no longer limited to compression ignition vehicles,
3. amend paragraph 7.4.4.3. of Annex 7 to correct a typographical error,
4. amend paragraph 3.2.1.of Annex 8 to correct an error originating with UN R83 Revision 3 (2005),
5. amend paragraph 6.5.3.5. to correct a cross-reference error introduced in Amendment 1 (reference should read para. 6.5.3.3. rather than 6.5.3.2.) and should refer to the “annex” rather than the “appendix”.

Updated proposal to adapt the 06 and 07 series of amendments to Regulation No. 83 to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) warning and inducement systems to current vehicles, emissions requirements and reagent infrastructure. In light of further vehicle weight reduction for CO2 optimization and the resultant use of smaller AdBlue® reagent tanks, this proposal would allow for reagent refill inducement warnings as a percentage of tank capacity or as a function of the average driving range with a complete tank of fuel.

Revised proposal to amend provisions on Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) warning and inducement systems, including reagent tank capacity and level specifications. This proposal updates the previous document GRPE-76-34 (which updated the formal proposal GRPE/2018/7).

Proposal to clarify the meaning and use of “peripheral devices”.

Proposal to correct and clarify provisions of the regulation.

GRPE to consider the progress report from the EC on the workings of PMP IWG

The update provides a summary of the key updates to GTR15 which are proposed for Amendment 6. These cover the following topics:
updates to existing GTR15 requirements and new Optional Annexes for Type 5 test (durability), Type 6 test (low temperature) and Conformity of Production. There is a proposed new annex for OBD.
