VECTO

Vehicle Energy Consumption Calculation Tool

In the European Union for each newly produced heavy duty vehicle individual figures for fuel consumption, energy consumption and CO₂ emissions have to be determined according the methods as laid down in Regulation (EU) 2017/2400. (for lorries and buses) and in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1362 (for trailers). 

The related vehicle-specific CO2 values form the basis for the CO2 standards (Regulation (EU) 2019/1242) that manufacturers will have to comply with in the coming years compared to the 2019 baseline (2025: minus 15%, 2030: minus 45%, 2035: minus 65%, 2040: minus 90%).

The Institute of Thermodynamics and Sustainable Propulsion Systems played a leading role in the development of the test methods, the technical regulations and the simulation tool and currently holds contracts for the further development and maintenance of the methods. Based on this outstanding expertise, we offer VECTO-related consulting at various levels.
