Division 1 Introduction

In order to determine the CO₂ emission reductions that can be attributed to the generator function of a 12 V motor generator, hereinafter referred to as an efficient 12 V motor generator or motor generator, for use in an M1 vehicle powered by a combustion engine, it is necessary to establish the following:

1. (1)

   the testing conditions;

2. (2)

   the test equipment;

3. (3)

   the determination of the peak power output;

4. (4)

   the calculation of the CO₂ savings;

5. (5)

   the calculation of the statistical margin of the CO₂ savings.
