  "text": "1. A manufacturer wishing to demonstrate certified CO2 savings from an eco-innovation shall apply to the Secretary of State for a GB type-approval certificate of the complete or incomplete vehicle fitted with the eco-innovation. The application for a certificate shall, in addition to the documents providing the necessary information specified in Article 25 of Regulation (EU) 2018/858, refer to the decision by the Secretary of State to approve an eco-innovation in accordance with Article 10(2) of this Regulation.\n2. The certified CO 2 savings of the eco-innovation demonstrated in accordance with the corresponding decision to approve the innovative technology as an eco-innovation shall be specified separately in both the type-approval documentation and the certificate of conformity in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2018/858, on the basis of tests carried out by technical services in accordance with Article 30 of that Regulation, using the approved testing methodology.\nSubject to the requirements of the approval decision, the quantified uncertainty referred to in Article 8(2) shall be subtracted from the total savings to be certified. Where the CO 2 savings of an eco-innovation for a specific type, variant, version and, where appropriate, interpolation family are below the relevant threshold specified in Article 9(1), the savings shall not be certified.\nIn the case predefined CO 2 savings determined in accordance with Article 4(2)(ea) are specified in the approval decision, the relevant predefined CO 2 savings value may be entered directly into the type approval documentation, provided that the approval authority is in a position to confirm that the vehicle is fitted with the technology in accordance with the specifications of the approval decision.\n3. Where the vehicle is fitted with more than one eco-innovation, the CO2 savings shall be demonstrated separately for each eco-innovation in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 8(1). The sum of the resulting savings determined in accordance with Article 8(2) for each eco-innovation shall provide the total CO2 savings for the purposes of the certification of that vehicle.\n4. Where interaction between several eco-innovations fitted to one vehicle cannot be ruled out because they are clearly of a different nature, the manufacturer shall indicate this in the application to the approval authority and shall provide a report from the independent and certified body on the impact of the interaction on the savings of the eco-innovations in the vehicle as referred to in Article 7(3).\nWhere, due to that interaction, the total savings are less than 0,5 g CO 2 /km times the number of eco-innovations, only those eco-innovation savings that meet the threshold set out in Article 9(1) shall be taken into account for calculating the total savings in accordance with paragraph 3 of this Article.",
