2 Presentation sections Fuel economy measurement background and European CO2 emission reductions and labelling EU labelling overview South Africa: Department of Energy fuel economy labeling Future measurement trends Summary

3 Background: Fuels and Vehicle are a System Multiple studies over the past three decades directly link fuel quality to emissions Air quality is not improved solely on restricting emissions standards fuel quality plays a key role in air quality improvements Reductions in NOx, HC, CO, CO2, etc. are achieved through a harmonious relationship between vehicle technologies and fuel quality. Vehicle emission equipment without the appropriate fuel quality can increase emissions. Fuel Quality Vehicle Technology Improvements in Fuel Economy and Emissions 3

4 Background: European new passenger car fleet CO2 legislation 130 gr/km average by 2015 progressive intro from gr/km average by 2020 subject to 2013 review. Waver for sub 10,000 units pa and special arrangements for sub 300,000 units manufacturers. Not initially applied to light commercial vehicles. Results in an effective 19% decrease in C02 emissions for all vehicles compared to current fleet. Implications for African markets?

5 Background: Typical Light Duty Vehicle Test Facility speed vs. time Power Absorption Unit Dilution Air Inertia Wheels Measurements in g/km, mg/km or #/km Regulations ECE-83 or 715/2007/EC Constant Volume Sampling (CVS) System Bag Samples to emissions analyzers

9 Background : Test (Reference) Fuels Fuels used for emission and FC/CO2 testing are specially prepared to ensure consistent and repeatable results. Key 24 parameters (petrol) controlled include: Octane (RON/MON) Density Aromatics Benzine Olefins Sulphur Ethanol (E5) In the case or ethanol which is newly added to the EU spec, this reduces fuel consumption by 1-2% - but has minimal impact on CO2 emissions.

10 Fuel Consumption (FC) Calculation and relationship to CO2 Relevant MEASUREMENTS taken test during rolling road emission test. 1) Carbon monoxide - CO 2) Hydrocarbons HC 3) Carbon Dioxide CO2 The fuel consumption (FC), expressed in litres per 100 km (in the case of petrol, LPG, ethanol (E85) and diesel) is calculated by means of the following formulae: FC = (0.118/D) [(0.848 HC) + (0.429 CO) + (0.273 CO2)] Where D is the fuel density. However quantities of CO and HC emissions are comparatively very small in modern vehicles. Hence for a given fuel type and density, FC is effectively directly proportional to CO2

14 1) Introduction European Directive 1999/94/EC as last amended prescribes how to provide Consumer information on fuel economy and CO2 emissions in respect of the marketing of new passenger cars (M1 only, sale or lease) at point of sale. The Directive acts as a framework and defines the minimum requirements and standards (e.g. design, content) which have to be implemented by the Member states into national law. Baseline is a four pillar construct: (i) Label, (ii) Poster/ Display, (iii) Promotional literature and (iv) a fuel economy and CO2 Guide. EU Member States (MS) can mandate country specific requirements for consumer information. Thus, each market can differ in: Design & Style Content Diverse approch on CO2 rating scheme (e.g. Absolute or Relative) Penalties (e.g. Warning, Money, Imprisonment) According to this national requirements, retailers (e.g. Dealer, Manufacturer, Importeurs) must display Consumer information at the point of sale 08/12/2014 Page 14

15 2) European Directive 1999/94/EC EU Directive 1999/94/EC (Framework Directive for M1 only) Retailer Requirement MS* Requirement (i) Label (Annex I) (ii) Poster / Display (Annex III) (iii) Promotional Literature (Annex IV) (iv) Guide (Annex II) Mandated: A4 format Model information Fuel type FC, CO2 Standard text for the Consumer Size (Minimum): Poster 70cm x50cm Display: 25cm x32cm (17 ) Mandated: Group and listed according to fuel type Models ranked in order of increasing CO2 FC, CO2 Standard text for the Consumer Update (at least) : Poster every 6 months Display every 3 month All kind of sales marketing consumer information (e.g. printed, electronically, internet) as a minimum, technical manuals, brochures, advertisements in newspapers, magazines and trade press and posters Mandated: FC, CO2 easy to read easy to understand even on superficial contact. Mandated: Listing of all new cars within the MS Grouped in alphabetic order FC, CO2 Prominent list, 10 most fuel efficient cars explanation of the effect of GHG reference to community s CO2 target (i.e. national) reference to Commission s guide Update (at least) Once a year *MS = Member state EU Member States regulation National adoption Page 15

16 3a) Outlook EVL labellling is expected to be extended to N1 vehicle category at latest by Reference found in EU Regulation (EU) 510/2011 paragraph (12): 1999/94/EC should therefore be extended to light commercial vehicles, so that advertisements for any light commercial vehicles should be required to provide end-users with the official CO2 emission data and official fuel consumption of the vehicle where energy- or pricerelated information is disclosed, at the latest by /12/2014 Page 16

28 5) Vehicle OEM Issues / Risks Tracking of European and National legislation changes: Thresholds Tax scheme Fuel price list Calculation Formula Missing communication by National sales countries/misinterpretation of legal requirements Non-Compliance: Dealer choice to apply either Internal or External label generator (offered by Car Association, Ministry or Agency). Regular compliance check at dealer and OEM performed by authorities and NGO s e.g. Consumer organisation, Autoclubs, and environment association. Non-Compliance linked to national penalties (e.g. Warning, Money, Imprisonment) Legislation is expanded to additional vehicle categories e.g. N1. Non-European Member states to follow European requirements e.g. Norway, Turkey. 08/12/2014 Page 28

29 6) EU Summary European Directive 1999/94/EC mandates consumer information of new passenger cars (M1 only) at point of sale. The Directive allows Member states to mandate country specific requirements There is no harmonized approach in Europe Diverse national label requirements across Europe exist National requirements may change, in some case like Switzerland is changing, ever year High demanding cost for updating IT label templates,posters/ Display and promotional literature. Non-Compliance / tracking risk due to amended national label requirements. Non-Compliance risk for penalties 08/12/2014 Page 29

30 South Africa Market & Experience Fuel economy/co2 developing market example Significant producer of new vehicles : BMW, Ford, GM, Mercedes Benz, Nissan and Toyota all have assembly plants supporting local and export markets. EU Trade agreements. Used vehicle imports prohibited : As opposed to the situation in most Sub Saharan countries. Legislated new vehicle requirements and homologation system. As opposed to just a Road Traffic Act aimed at operational issues as is the case in most developing countries. SA follows Europe in terms of vehicle design. SA participates in WP 29 and adopts ECE vehicle regulations albeit at lower stingency.

31 SA Legislated labelling requirements New passenger cars Vehicle Fuel Economy and Carbon Dioxide Emission Labelling Every petrol and diesel powered vehicle shall have applied to the inside of its windscreen a fuel consumption label. The label shall be self adhesive and removable and of a type suitable for application to the windscreen. The Label shall be placed in the bottom corner of the windscreen. The fuel consumption label shall contain the following statements and information. The words "FUEL CONSUMPTION" or "FUEL ECONOMY" as a heading The vehicle make, model or description. The fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions values as determined by SANS ECE R101 XXX recorded in litres per 100km and grams per km respectively Where a common label is utilised covering different engine, body styles or transmissions the fuel consumption and carbon dioxide figures quoted shall be those as applicable to the worst case combination. As an alternative to sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3above, an internally mounted label visible through the windscreen of the vehicle and suitable for removal and inclusion in the owner's manual may be displayed.

33 NAAMSA FUEL ECONOMY/CO2 DATA BASE

34 Future trends: World Light Duty Cycle and Test Procedure Develop the world wide harmonized light duty test cycle (WLTC) which will represent typical driving conditions around the world. The WLTC are developed based on combination of collected in-use data and suitable weighting factors. Data collection CP s: EU, India, Japan, Korea, USA (and China)

35 Speed (km/h) speed (kph) NEDC and WLTP cycle NEDC (Combined Cycle) 120 kph Start of measurement Single Urban Drive Cycle 195 seconds 40 Extre Urban Drive Cycle 400 seconds time (s) WLTP Version 5.0 low medium high extra high Time (s) WLTP has higher maximum speed (above 130 kmph), harder accelerations and clearly looks more like real driving than the NEDC. WLTP is 34% longer.
