4.6.1. | Proposal for 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 100 (Electric power trained vehicles)
10. | UN Regulation No. 100 (Electric power trained vehicles)

22. The expert from the Netherlands reiterated a proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/35 and amendment GRSP-74-38) that: (a) identifies heavy duty vehicles equipped with an electric drivetrain and (b) confirms that additional labelling would support emergency services to determine how to approach these vehicles in case of a fire. The expert from the Russian Federation introduced GRSP-74-34 to reintroduce his proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/36) that extends the identification of vehicles to categories M and N with an electric drivetrain. The expert from OICA argued that both proposals were challenging. He invited experts to look for solutions other than labelling to provide information (e.g. rescue sheets available on internet). The expert from the Russian Federation also insisted that the identification of passenger cars with electric power train would be needed due to the low number of electric vehicles in traffic. The expert from Australia suggested merging the proposals as he agreed on the need for labelling all electric vehicles in this transitional phase. The expert from France informed GRSP that the Euro New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP) had confirmed that rescue sheets were also available offline. The expert from the Netherlands noted that it was not possible to link any single vehicle to rescue sheets. The expert from EC suggested keeping this proposal on hold until the amendment on UN Regulation No. 100 on thermal propagation was finalized, so as to submit an amendment as a complete package. The expert from the Netherlands clarified that the proposal would be needed without any further delays. Finally, GRSP adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2023/35 as amended by annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft 04 Series of Amendments to UN Regulation No. 100 for consideration and vote at the June 2024 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
