MT ≤ C CO 2 − S C CO 2 − ΔCO 2 m

Where:

MT
  • minimum threshold [gCO2/km]

  • C CO 2
  • total CO2 saving [gCO2/km]

  • S C CO 2
  • standard deviation of the total CO2 saving [gCO2/km]

  • ΔCO 2 m
  • CO2 correction coefficient due to the positive mass difference between the efficient alternator and the baseline alternator. ΔCO 2 m is calculated following Table 4:

    Table 4

    CO2 correction coefficient due to the extra mass
    Petrol ( ΔCO 2 mP ) [g CO2/km kg]0,0277 · Δm
    Diesel ( ΔCO 2 mD ) [g CO2/km kg]0,0383 · Δm
  • In Table 4 Δm is the extra mass due to the installation of the efficient alternator. It is the positive difference between the mass of the efficient alternator and the mass of baseline alternator. The mass of the baseline alternator is 7 kg. On the evaluation of the extra mass the manufacturer must hand over verified documentation to the Type-Approval Authority.
