  "text": "The statistical error in the CO2 savings is to be determined in two steps. In the first step the error value of the power is to be determined as a standard deviation being equivalent to a confidence interval of 68 %.\nThis is to be done by formula (4).\nFormula (4):\nσ x – = ∑ n i = 1 x i − x – 2 n n − 1 Where:\nσ x – Standard deviation of arithmetic mean [W];\nxi Measurement value [W];\nx – Arithmetic mean [W];\nn Number of measurements, which is 5.\nIn order to calculate the error in the CO2 savings for a petrol and diesel -fuelled vehicles, the propagation law, expressed in formula (5), is to be applied.\nFormula (5):\nWhere:\nΔC CO 2 – Mean total error of the CO2 saving [gCO2/km]\nSensitivity of calculated CO2 saving related to the type of lighting Pj\nσPj Error of the type of lighting Pj [W]\nm a number of types of lightings in the innovative technology package\nSubstituting formula (2) in formula (5) results in formula (6) for calculating the error in CO2 savings for petrol fuelled vehicles.\nFormula (6):\nΔC CO 2 – = 0,0273 gCO 2 ∕ kmW × ∑ j = 1 m UF j × σ P j 2 Substituting formula (3) in formula (5) results in formula (7) for calculating the error in CO2 savings for diesel fuelled vehicles.\nFormula (7):\nΔC CO 2 – = 0,0258 gCO 2 ∕ kmW × ∑ j = 1 m UF j × σ P j 2",
