# Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/362 of 11 March 2016 on the approval of the MAHLE Behr GmbH & Co. KG enthalpy storage tank as an innovative technology for reducing CO2 emissions from passenger cars pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (Text with EEA relevance), Division 1: INTRODUCTION

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

In order to determine the CO2 reduction that can be attributed to the use of the enthalpy storage tank technology (EST system), it is necessary to establish the following:
(a) the testing procedure to be followed for determining the cool-down curves of the baseline vehicle (the vehicle fitted with a deactivated enthalpy storage tank) and the eco-innovation vehicle;
(b) the testing procedure to be followed for determining the CO2 emission at different engine coolant start temperature;
(c) the testing procedure to be followed for determining the theoretical temperature of the engine after discharging the EST system;
(d) the testing procedure to be followed for determining the Hot start benefit;
(e) the formulae to be used for determining the CO2 savings;
(f) the formulae to be used for determining the statistical error and significance of the results.
