C CO 2 = ∑ m i = 1 ΔP i × UF i v × η DCDC × K CO 2

Where:

ηDCDC
  • Efficiency of the DC-DC converter

  • K CO 2
  • CO2 correction factor gCO 2 km ∕ Wh km , as defined in paragraph 2.2 of Appendix 2 to Sub-Annex 8 to Annex XXI to Regulation (EU) 2017/1151.

  • The efficiency of the DC-DC converter (ηDCDC ) shall be evaluated in accordance with the appropriate vehicle architecture, as specified in Table 7:

    Table 7

    F1Efficiency of the DC-DC converter for different vehicle light architectures

    #Architecture ηDCDC
    1Lights connected in parallel to the low voltage battery (lights fed directly from the high voltage battery via DCDC converter)0,xx
    2Lights connected in series after the low voltage battery, and the low voltage battery connected in series to the High voltage battery1
    3High Voltage and low voltage batteries have exactly the same voltage (12 V, 48 V,…) as the lights1

    For architecture #1, the efficiency of the DC-DC converter (ηDCDC ) shall be the highest value resulting from the efficiency tests performed in the operative electric current range. The measuring interval shall be equal or lower than 10 % of the operative electric current range.
