GPP criteria for road transport

Green Public Procurement

Transport sector

• This revision has coincided with the evaluation of the Clean Vehicle

Directive and the introduction of new test procedures to measure CO2 and air pollutant emissions of vehicles.

• All these policies have been taken into account in the revision

process of the EU GPP criteria for transport, to ensure a full harmonisation of the EU policies.

Obligations set out in the Clean Vehicle Directive

• Adopted on 18th April 2019
• Applies for the purchase, lease, rent or hire-purchase of road

transport vehicles awarded by CAs

Market analysis

• Public sector is responsible for procuring around 620, 000 vehicles a

year in the EU

• Markets are still dominated by vehicles using diesel and petrol
• Fleets are dominated by vehicles that meet Euro emission standards
• f Euro 4 or earlier

Status of road transport in 2nd NAP

• A sector which has been addressed by GPP since 2012
• Non-mandatory status – a choice for Contracting Authorities
• Annual statistics show that in 2017 – 85%, 2018 – 89% tenders were

compliant

• The second NAP sets a mandatory status for this sector which will

come into force in 2021

Definition and scope

• Covers 7 categories and puts forward 2 sets of generic technical specs

for vehicles and services

• CPV codes are indicated as part of the definitions
• Special purpose vehicles such as ambulances and hearse are excluded

from the scope

Cars and LCVs Mobility Services Buses Bus services Waste collection trucks Waste service services Post, courier and moving services Criteria for vehicle categories Criteria for service categories

• 1. Type-approval CO2 Value
• 2. Air pollutant emissions
• 3. Gear shift indicators
• 4. Energy consumption display
• 5. Minimum warranty

Cars and LCVs

• In view of the 2020/2021 targets

under the CO2 emission regulations, their requirements have been taken into account in GPP criteria

• The CO2 values proposed in the

criteria are set in different tiers from 2018 to 2021

Type-approval CO2 Value

Air pollutant emissions

• Applies to M1 and N1 vehicles with a mass not exceeding 2 610kg.
• All newly registered cars and LCVs have to comply with EURO 6. The

EU GPP criteria go beyond these mandatory requirements.

• From September 2019 must comply with a real driving emission

performance which is EURO 6 for NOx and PM

• From January 2021 must comply with a real driving emission

performance which is at most equal to 0.8 times the EURO 6 for NOx and PM

LCVs must be equipped with a gear shift indicator, meaning a visible indicator recommending that the driver shift gear

Gear shift indicators

The vehicles must be equipped with a mechanism to display the driver fuel consumption figures.

Energy consumption display

Minimum warranty

• Applies if the CA is requiring battery electric vehicles
• The tenderer must provide a minimum warranty of the battery of

150 000 km or 8 years against capacity loss below 70 % of its original value at delivery according to EN 626601.

Road transport criteria:

• Non-scheduled passenger transport i.e. transport carried out for

pupils/students who are not able to travel by themselves

• Cycles, bicycles, cycle trailers
• Light electric vehicles and self-balancing vehicles
• Special-purpose road passenger –transport services
• Car sharing

Air pollutant emissions

• Targets for buses, cars and LCVs, and L- category vehicles are

incremental from 2018 to 2021

Cars and LCVs Mobility Services Buses Bus services Waste collection trucks Waste service services Post, courier and moving services Criteria for vehicle categories Criteria for service categories

• Covers M2 and M3 vehicles, as

defined by Directive 2007/46

• Sets three technical specs:
• 1. Technological improvement
• ptions to reduce GHG

emissions

• 2. Air pollutant emissions

performance

• 3. Exhaust pipes

Buses

Technological improvement options to reduce GHG emissions

• City buses, coaches and inter-urban buses must be equipped with
• ne of the technologies classified in table 1
• 1. Mild hybrid
• 2. Full electric and plug -in
• 3. Dedicated natural gas

• M3 vehicles and M2 vehicles

with a mass exceeding 2 610 kg must meet Euro VI.

Air pollutant emissions performance

Vehicles’ exhaust pipes must be located on the opposite side of the passenger door at the rear of the vehicle.

Bus services

• 1. Technological options to reduce GHG emissions
• 2. Tyre pressure monitoring systems
• 3. Vehicle tyres – rolling resistance
• 4. Fuels
• 5. Air pollutant emissions

Technological options to reduce GHG emissions

• Option 1

The bus routes must be operated using vehicles

• 1. Mild hybrid
• 2. Full electric and plug -in
• 3. Dedicated natural gas
• Option 2

The fleet must be composed of the following shares of vehicles equipped with one of the eligible technologies. Percentage is segmented each year

Tyre pressure monitoring systems

• Monitoring tools that achieve an average fuel consumption reduction
• GPP criteria state that LCVs and HDVs must be equipped with TPMS

• Low rolling resistance tyres can

reduce fuel consumption

• Energy efficiency directive states

that central governments should

• nly purchase tyres that have the

highest fuel energy efficiency class

• GPP criteria enforce this through a

technical spec and also give the

• ption to CAs to buy rethreaded

tyres

Vehicle tyres – rolling resistance

Air pollutant emissions

• Sets EURO V and VI standards but as a minimum EURO V

Technological options to reduce GHGs

• 1. Hybrid vehicles both diesel and natural gas
• 2. Vehicles equipped with energy accumulation/recovery systems
• 3. Vehicles equipped with load-sensing hydraulic systems
• 4. Vehicles equipped with electric bin lifts
• 5. Plug-in hybrid: Vehicle equipped with a battery pack which can be

charged from the grid and provides the energy for the electrical drive of the body and lifter

Auxiliary units

• The vehicle’s emissions from the separate engines for auxiliary units

(e.g. compactor, lifter,) must meet the exhaust emission limits according to Regulation (EU) No 2016/1628, Stage V.

Vehicle specific eco-driving information

• Literature indicates that eco-driving techniques may result in emission

reduction and fuel consumption of 10-15%.

• GPP criteria specify that vehicles must be equipped with

information/instructions on eco driving.

• This info may be provided in the form of training sessions

Environmental Management Measures

• The tenderers must have written procedures to :
• 1. monitor and record the GHG and air pollutant emissions of the

service.

• 2. implement an emissions reduction plan with measures aimed at

reducing the GHG emissions

• 3. implement the necessary actions to correct any deviations from the

plan
