               implementing Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the performance of heavy-duty trailers with regard to their influence on the CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, energy consumption and zero emission range of motor vehicles and amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/683
            
            
               (Text with EEA relevance)
            
            
               THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
            
            
               Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
            
            
               Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 595/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2009 on type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to emissions from heavy duty vehicles (Euro VI) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information and amending Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 and Directive 2007/46/EC and repealing Directives 80/1269/EEC, 2005/55/EC and 2005/78/EC
                  1
               , and in particular Article 5c, first paragraph, point (a) thereof,
            
            
               Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles, amending Regulations (EC) No 715/2007 and (EC) 595/2009 and repealing Directive 2007/46/EC
                  2
               , and in particular Article 24(4), 36(4), 44(5) and 45(7) thereof, 
            
            
               Whereas:
            
            
               (1)The performance of vehicles of categories O3 and O4 with regard to their influence on CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, electricity consumption and zero-emission driving ranges of motor vehicles may vary depending on their technical parameters. More efficient trailers have lower drag force resistance, thus improving the energy efficiency of the towing vehicle. Trailers with similar technical parameters have similar effects on the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of the towing vehicle. In order to reflect the diversity of the trailer sector, trailers should be divided into vehicle groups with a similar type of vehicle, axle configuration, maximum permissible axle load and chassis configuration.
            
            
               (2)Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/2400
                  3
               contains certification obligations and rules for the determination of the CO2 emissions and the fuel consumption of heavy-duty motor vehicles. The determination of the fuel consumption is based on a computer simulation for which the Commission has developed the VECTO simulation tool pursuant to Article 5(1), point (a), of that Regulation. Since the VECTO simulation tool cannot take into account the influence of different trailers and since there is no software available on the market to be used for assessing the influence of trailers on the energy consumption of towing vehicles, the Commission developed a dedicated trailer simulation tool for that purpose. 
            
            
               (3)Aerodynamic resistance is one of the forces a vehicle must overcome while driving. It is scientifically proven that the use of appropriate aerodynamic devices on a trailer can significantly reduce the aerodynamic resistance of a vehicle combination and thus its energy consumption. The reduction effect of those aerodynamic devices should therefore be certified.
            
            
               (4)Computational fluid dynamics simulation is a method to determine the aerodynamic drag force of a vehicle and it is less expensive than a physical test. Such computational fluid dynamics simulations can only be used for aerodynamic device certification if all manufacturers of aerodynamic devices use the same 3D generic vehicle models for the reduction effect determination of those devices. In the absence of appropriate 3D generic vehicle models, the Commission has developed those models and makes them available on a dedicated platform free of charge.
            
            
               (5)Vehicle manufacturers should assess the environmental performance of their vehicles by means of a simulation tool provided by the Commission and before placing those vehicles on the market in the Union. To ensure that the environmental performance is correctly simulated, approval authorities should assess and monitor the handling of data used for the simulation and the proper use of the simulation tool. After that assessment, the approval authority should grant a licence to the vehicle manufacturer concerned for the operation of the simulation tool.
            
            
               (6)The information about the environmental performance of a trailer can be used for road toll and taxation and should therefore  be shown in the manufacturer’s record file and the customer information file. To prevent forgery, vehicle manufacturers should use a tool provided by the Commission to create a cryptographic hash, which should be part of the certificate of conformity or the individual approval certificate. That cryptographic hash can be used to expose discrepancies between the different documents of the vehicle concerned. For the same reasons, the same hashing principle should apply to components and their certification.
            
            
               (7)In order to avoid unnecessary burdens for vehicle manufacturers and to reduce the number of annual assessments by approval authorities, technical services should be allowed to determine the environmental performance of vehicles that are subject to individual approvals by using the simulation tool provided by the Commission. . The holders of individual approvals should therefore be able to request approval authorities to refer those holders to a technical service to assess the environmental performance of their  vehicles. 
            
            
               (8)There are components that affect the running resistance of a vehicle very differently depending on ther design parameters of those components. Manufacturers of those components should be able to certify their components by determining the energy efficiency characteristics of the components themselves, using identical methods. Vehicle manufacturers should use those certified values as input data for the simulation tool to assess the environmental performance of vehicles. In case that a component is not certified, vehicle manufacturers should use standard values instead of certified values.
            
            
               (9)In order to limit the cost of component certification, manufacturers of components should be able to group components into families. For each family of components, the component that has the least favourable characteristics as regards the environmental performance of the vehicle on which it is to be installed should be tested, and its results should apply to the entire family of components.
            
            
               (10)The provisions set out in this Regulation form part of the framework established by Regulation (EU) 2018/858 and complement the provisions for issuing the certificate of conformity and the individual approval certificate laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/683
                  4
               . The corresponding annexes to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/683 should therefore be amended to incorporate the necessary changes into the type-approval procedure.
            
         
         
            
               (11)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Technical Committee - Motor Vehicles (TCMV) referred to in Article 83 of Regulation (EU) 2018/858,

               ANNEX I
               CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES IN VEHICLE GROUPS
            
            
            
               1.Definitions
            
            
               For the purposes of this Annex, the following definitions apply: 
            
            
               (1)“soft shell box body” means a box shaped bodywork where at least the two sides of the body are covered by tarpaulin entirely or between the upper edge of the hinged side panels and the roof of the superstructure, and for which the digits used to supplement the codes of bodywork are 32, or 06.
            
            
               (2)“hard shell box body” means a box shaped bodywork for which the digits used to supplement the codes of bodywork are 03 or 05.
            
            
               (3)“refrigerated box body” means a box shaped bodywork for which the digits used to supplement the codes of bodywork are 04.
            
            
               (4)‘internal height of the body’ means the internal height of the body dimension without taking into account internal projections (including wheel boxes, ribs and hooks) as defined in point 6.15 of Standard ISO 612:1978. If the roof is curved, the dimension shall be measured between the planes (vertical or horizontal, depending on the case) tangential to the apices of the curved surface, the dimension being measured inside the body.
            
            
               (5)‘internal length of the body’ means the internal length of the body dimension without taking into account internal projections (including wheelboxes, ribs and hooks) as defined in point 6.15 of Standard ISO 612:1978. If the front or rear wall is curved, the dimension shall be measured between the vertical planes tangential to the apices of the curved surface(s), the dimension being measured inside the body.
            
            
               (6)‘volume orientation" means that the trailer is primarily designed for the transport of voluminous goods and has an internal height of not less than 2.9 meters:
            
            
               (a)in the case of semi-trailers, measured from the landing gear to the end of the loading area;
            
            
               (b)in the case of drawbar trailers, and centre-axle trailers, measured along the entire length of the loading area.

               VEHICLE’S AIR DRAG DATA
               DETERMINATION OF AERODYNAMIC DEVICE DATA
            
            
               1.Introduction
            
         
         
            
               This Annex sets out the procedure for the determination of the aerodynamic device data.
            
            
               2.Definitions
            
            
               (1)Standard aerodynamic devices are aerodynamic devices for which standard values can be used in the vehicle certification. The standard aerodynamic device may consist the following elements:
            
            
               (a)‘rear flaps’ means an aerodynamic device composed by two or more rear fairing panels located at the rear end of the vehicle with the aim to reduce its wake;
            
            
               (b)‘short rear flaps’ means a rear flaps which lateral panels measure at least 2 meters and do not cover the total height of the body;
            
            
               (c)‘tall rear flaps’ means a rear flaps which lateral panels cover the entire height of the body;
            
            
               (d)‘side covers’ means an aerodynamic device composed by panels located at the lower side of the vehicle with the aim to reduce the impact of crosswind and/or the turbulences created by the wheels on the air drag;
            
            
               (e)‘short side covers’ means side covers that do not cover the area of the wheels; in case of semi-trailers, they cover only the distance between the landing gear and the beginning of the first wheel;
            
            
               (f)‘long side covers’ means side covers that cover a distance between the landing gear of a semi-trailer and the rear end of the vehicle;
            
            
               (2) ‘CFD’ means computational fluid dynamic simulation used for analysing complex fluid phenomena;
            
            
               3.Determination of air drag reduction by means of virtual tests using CFD
            
            
               3.1.Validation of the CFD method
            
            
               Based on the validation process as specified in Annex VIII, Appendix 3 to Regulation (EU) 2018/858, the certification of an aerodynamic device by means of CFD shall require the CFD method to be validated against a reference CFD method as shown in Figure 1.
            
            
               The CFD method to be validated shall be applied to a set of generic geometries.
            
            
               
                  
            
            
               Figure 1. Validation process of the CFD method
            
            
               Comparability of the computer simulation results shall be proven. The manufacturer of the aerodynamic device or the technical service shall draft a validation report and submit it to the approval authority. 
            
            
               Any change to the CFD method or to the software that is likely to invalidate the validation report shall be brought to the attention of the approval authority, which may require that a new validation process is conducted.
            
            
               Once validated, the model shall be used for certifying the aerodynamic device.
            
            
               3.2.Requirements for the validation of the CFD method
            
         
         
            
               The validation process shall consist of simulating three different CFD simulation sets as follows:
            
            
               (a)BASE set:
            
            
               –Generic 4x2 tractor
            
            
               –Generic ST1 semi-trailer.
            
            
               (b)TRF set:
            
            
               –Generic 4x2 tractor
            
            
               –Generic ST1 semi-trailer
            
            
               –Generic tall rear flaps
            
            
               (c)LSC set:
            
            
               –Generic 4x2 tractor
            
            
               –Generic ST1 semi-trailer
            
            
               –Generic long side covers
            
            
            
               Each set shall be simulated at β=0.0, 3.0 and 6.0 degrees of yaw to account for crosswind effects coming from the left hand side of the vehicle, as shown in Figure 2.

               The manufacturer of the aerodynamic device shall use generic vehicle geometries to demonstrate the performance of the aerodynamic device mounted on a trailer or semi-trailer. For that purpose, the 3D model of the aerodynamic device shall be added to the generic vehicle geometries in the same position as if they were mounted on a real vehicle. 
            
            
               Upon agreement of an approval authority, the manufacturer of the aerodynamic device may make changes to the generic geometries if that is necessary for the correct installation or proper operation of the aerodynamic device and if that change adequately reflects reality.
