United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 is amended as follows:

  1. (1)

    in the list of Annexes, the Annex XX is added:

    ANNEX XX
  2. ‘Measurement of net engine power’;

  3. (2)

    Annex I is amended as follows:

    1. (a)

      Point 2.4 is replaced by the following:

      ‘2.4.

      Application of tests

      2.4.1.

      Figure I.2.4 illustrates the application of the tests for type-approval of a vehicle. The specific test procedures are described in Annexes II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, X, XI, XII, XVIf1 and XX.

      Figure I.2.4

      Application of test requirements for type-approval and extensions

      When a bi-fuel vehicle is combined with a flex fuel vehicle, both test requirements are applicable.

      This provision is temporary, further requirements for biodiesel shall be proposed later on.

      Test on petrol only before the dates set out in Article 10(6) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. The test will be performed on both fuels after these dates. The E75 test reference fuel specified in Annex IX, Section B, shall be used.

      Only NOx emissions shall be determined when the vehicle is running on hydrogen.

      Upon the choice of the manufacturer vehicles with positive and compression ignition engines may be tested with either E5 or E10 and either B5 or B7 fuels, respectively. However:

      • Not later than sixteen months after the dates set out in Article 10(4) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007, new type -approvals shall only be performed with E10 and B7 fuels,

      • Not later than three years after the dates set out in Article 10(5) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007, all new vehicles shall be type-approved with E10 and B7 fuels.

      the following text is added after Figure I.2.4:

      ‘ Explanatory note:

      The dates of application of the reference fuels E10 and B7 for all new vehicles have been set out to minimise the test burden. If, however, technical evidence for vehicles certified with E5 or B5 reference fuels showing significantly higher emissions when tested with E10 or B7 is established, the Commission should make a proposal advancing these introduction dates.’;

        ‘

        Type: Petrol (E10):

        The values quoted in the specifications are “true values”. In establishment of their limit values the terms of ISO 4259 Petroleum products - Determination and application of precision data in relation to methods of test have been applied and in fixing a minimum value, a minimum difference of 2R above zero has been taken into account; in fixing a maximum and minimum value, the minimum difference is 4R (R = reproducibility). Notwithstanding this measure, which is necessary for technical reasons, the manufacturer of fuels shall nevertheless aim at a zero value where the stipulated maximum value is 2R and at the mean value in the case of quotations of maximum and minimum limits. Should it be necessary to clarify whether a fuel meets the requirements of the specifications, the terms of ISO 4259 shall be applied.

        A correction factor of 0,2 for MON and RON shall be subtracted for the calculation of the final result in accordance with EN 228:2008.

        The fuel may contain oxidation inhibitors and metal deactivators normally used to stabilise refinery gasoline streams, but detergent/dispersive additives and solvent oils shall not be added.

        Ethanol is the only oxygenate that shall be intentionally added to the reference fuel. The Ethanol used shall conform to EN 15376.

        The actual sulphur content of the fuel used for the Type 1 test shall be reported.

        There shall be no intentional addition of compounds containing phosphorus, iron, manganese, or lead to this reference fuel.

        (2) Equivalent EN/ISO methods will be adopted when issued for properties listed above.

      Type: Petrol (E10):

      The values quoted in the specifications are “true values”. In establishment of their limit values the terms of ISO 4259 Petroleum products - Determination and application of precision data in relation to methods of test have been applied and in fixing a minimum value, a minimum difference of 2R above zero has been taken into account; in fixing a maximum and minimum value, the minimum difference is 4R (R = reproducibility).

      The fuel may contain oxidation inhibitors and metal deactivators normally used to stabilise refinery gasoline streams, but detergent/dispersive additives and solvent oils shall not be added.

      Ethanol is the only oxygenate that shall be intentionally added to the reference fuel. The ethanol used shall conform to EN 15376.

      The actual sulphur content of the fuel used for the Type 6 test shall be reported.

      There shall be no intentional addition of compounds containing phosphorus, iron, manganese, or lead to this reference fuel.

f1

Specific test procedures for hydrogen and flex fuel biodiesel vehicles will be defined at a later stage.

f2

When a bi-fuel vehicle is combined with a flex fuel vehicle, both test requirements are applicable.

f3

Upon the choice of the manufacturer vehicles with positive and compression ignition engines may be tested with either E5 or E10 and either B5 or B7 fuels, respectively. However:

  • Not later than sixteen months after the dates set out in Article 10(4) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007, new type -approvals shall only be performed with E10 and B7 fuels,

  • Not later than three years after the dates set out in Article 10(5) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007, all new vehicles shall be type-approved with E10 and B7 fuels.

f4

Only NOx emissions shall be determined when the vehicle is running on hydrogen.

f5

This provision is temporary, further requirements for biodiesel shall be proposed later on.

f6

Test on petrol only before the dates set out in Article 10(6) of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007. The test will be performed on both fuels after these dates. The E75 test reference fuel specified in Annex IX, Section B, shall be used.

f7

Delete where not applicable.’

f8

The values quoted in the specifications are “true values”. In establishment of their limit values the terms of ISO 4259 Petroleum products - Determination and application of precision data in relation to methods of test have been applied and in fixing a minimum value, a minimum difference of 2R above zero has been taken into account; in fixing a maximum and minimum value, the minimum difference is 4R (R = reproducibility). Notwithstanding this measure, which is necessary for technical reasons, the manufacturer of fuels shall nevertheless aim at a zero value where the stipulated maximum value is 2R and at the mean value in the case of quotations of maximum and minimum limits. Should it be necessary to clarify whether a fuel meets the requirements of the specifications, the terms of ISO 4259 shall be applied.

f9

A correction factor of 0,2 for MON and RON shall be subtracted for the calculation of the final result in accordance with EN 228:2008.

f10

The fuel may contain oxidation inhibitors and metal deactivators normally used to stabilise refinery gasoline streams, but detergent/dispersive additives and solvent oils shall not be added.

f11

Ethanol is the only oxygenate that shall be intentionally added to the reference fuel. The Ethanol used shall conform to EN 15376.

f12

The actual sulphur content of the fuel used for the Type 1 test shall be reported.

f13

There shall be no intentional addition of compounds containing phosphorus, iron, manganese, or lead to this reference fuel.

f14

Should it be necessary to clarify whether a fuel meets the requirements of the specifications, the terms of ISO 4259 shall be applied.

f15

The range for cetane number is not in accordance with the requirements of a minimum range of 4R. However, in the case of a dispute between fuel supplier and fuel user, the terms of ISO 4259 may be used to resolve such disputes provided replicate measurements, of sufficient number to archive the necessary precision, are made in preference to single determinations.

f16

Even though oxidation stability is controlled, it is likely that shelf life will be limited. Advice shall be sought from the supplier as to storage conditions and life.

f17

FAME content to meet the specification of EN 14214.
