Division 1 INTRODUCTION

In order to determine the CO₂ reductions that can be attributed to the use of the Daimler engine encapsulation system in an M₁ vehicle, it is necessary to establish the following:

1. (a)

   the testing procedure to be followed for determining the cool-down curves of the eco-innovation vehicle with and without an engine compartment encapsulation;

2. (b)

   the testing procedure to be followed to determine the Hot Start Benefit (HSB) of the eco-innovation vehicle;

3. (c)

   the formulae for calculating the variation coefficients;

4. (d)

   the formulae for calculating the CO₂ savings;

5. (e)

   the determination of the CO₂ savings for the certification by type-approval authorities.
