Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012

3. Global Warming Score

(a) The global warming emissions value used to determine a vehicle’s global

warming score must be measured and calculated as follows:

(1) If California has received a waiver of federal preemption under the Clean

Air Act, Section 209(b), to enforce Title 13, California Code of

Regulations, Section 1961.1 as noticed in the Federal Register, then the

global warming emissions value is the CO2 -equivalent combined value

as calculated in accordance with Title 13, California Code of Regulations, 

Section 1961.1(a)(1)(B) and certified pursuant thereto.

(2) If California has not received a waiver of federal preemption under the

Clean Air Act, Section 209(b), to enforce Title 13, California Code of

Regulations, Section 1961.1 as noticed in the Federal Register, then the

global warming emissions value is the CO2-equivalent combined value as 

calculated using the following method:

(A) If the vehicle is not equipped with an air conditioning system, then

the CO2-equivalent combined value is calculated using this

equation:

CO2-equivalent combined value = [(0.55 x CO2-city + 0.45 x CO2-

highway) + 2] x Fuel Adjustment Factor

(B) If the vehicle is equipped with an air conditioning system, then the

CO2-equivalent combined value is calculated using this equation:

CO2-equivalent combined value = [(0.55 x CO2-city + 0.45 x CO2-

highway) + 25 – (A/C-direct + A/C-indirect)] x Fuel Adjustment 

Factor

Where:

i. “CO2-city” and “CO2-highway” values are the vehicle’s grams per 

mile city and highway CO2 measured emissions reported to ARB 

in accordance with the August 29, 2007, ARB Mailout, MSO 

#2007-03, and incorporated by reference herein.

ii. “A/C-direct” is a credit for an A/C system that qualifies as a “lowleak” system. The A/C-direct default value is zero for A/C

systems that do not qualify as a “low-leak” system. To qualify as 

a “low-leak” A/C system that uses HFC-134a as the refrigerant, 

the following requirements apply and the Executive Officer will 

review submitted demonstrations for approval:
4

As Amended: March 22, 2012

Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012

1. The manufacturer must demonstrate via engineering

evaluation that the A/C system minimizes overall refrigerant 

leakage by:

a. Minimizing the number of fitting and joints.

b. Limiting the use of single O-rings for pipe and hose

connections.

c. Using lowest permeability hose for containment of the

refrigerant.

d. Minimizing leakage from compressor shaft seal and

housing seals.

2. Annual leakage refrigerant emissions are measured and

determined in accordance with SAE International standard 

J2727 (Rev. Jul. 2007), incorporated by reference herein. If 

the A/C system is determined to be a “low-leak” system in

accordance with paragraphs 3.(a)(2)(B)ii.1. and 2. Above

and if approved by the Executive Officer, the A/C-direct 

credit is then calculated using the following equation:

A/C-direct = 6 – SAE J2727 measured annual refrigerant

leakage in grams x 1300 / 12,000

iii. For an A/C system that uses a refrigerant with a Global Warming 

Potential ≤ 150 times that of CO2, the A/C-direct credit is equal 

to 6 grams/mile.

iv. “A/C-indirect” is a credit for an A/C system that qualifies as an

“improved” system. The A/C-indirect default value is zero for A/C 

systems that do not qualify as an “improved” system. To qualify 

as an “improved” system that uses CO2, HFC-134a, HFC-152a, 

or other halocarbon refrigerant, the following requirements apply 

and the Executive Officer will review submitted demonstrations 

for approval:

1. The manufacturer demonstrates using test data in an

engineering evaluation that the A/C system achieves lower

A/C-indirect emissions than the default value of 

17 grams/mile.

2. The system manages outside and re-circulated air balance

to achieve comfort, demisting, and safety requirements,

based on factors such as temperature, humidity, pressure,

and level of fresh air in the passenger compartment in order 

to minimize compressor usage.
5

As Amended: March 22, 2012

Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012

3. The system is optimized for energy efficiency by utilizing

state-of-the-art high efficiency evaporators, expansion

devices, condensers, and other components.

4. The system has external controls that adjust the evaporative 

temperature to minimize the necessity of reheating cold air 

to satisfy occupant comfort. If the A/C system is determined 

to be an “improved” system in accordance with paragraphs 

3.(a)(2)(B)iv.1. through 4. Above and if approved by the 

Executive Officer, the A/C-indirect credit is calculated using 

the following equation:

A/C-indirect = 17 – Compressor Displacement in cubic

centimeters x 5 / 100

v. “Fuel Adjustment Factor” is the upstream greenhouse gas

emission adjustment factor for various fuels and is assigned the 

following values:

Fuel Type Fuel Adjustment

Factor

Gasoline 1.00

Diesel 1.00

Natural Gas 1.03

LPG 0.89

E85 0.74

(C) Vehicles that use electricity or hydrogen as their only fuel source

are exempt from testing and submission of greenhouse gas data for

calculating CO2-equivalent combined values. Such vehicles will be

assigned a default CO2-equivalent combined value as follows:

Vehicle Type CO2-equivalent

combined value (g/mile)

Battery Electric 130

Hydrogen Internal Combustion 290

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric 210

(b) The average new vehicle CO2-equivalent combined value is projected to be 360 

grams per mile and will be assigned a global warming score of 5.

(c) The global warming scores in the following table apply to all:

(1) passenger cars,

4. Smog Score

(a) The average new vehicle NMOG + NOx certification value is projected to be

closest to an Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicle (ULEV) certification and is assigned a 

smog score of 5, regardless of actual average certified values.

(b) The smog scores in the following table apply to 2009 and subsequent model 

year passenger cars and light-duty trucks 0-8500 lbs. GVW and medium-duty 

passenger vehicles 8501-9999 lbs. GVW, as certified pursuant to Title 13,
