2017: Entry into force of two new protocols for measuring pollutant emissions, which are more representative of real-world driving conditions Since 1 September 2017, European Regulation (EU 2017/1151) requires, for the certification of vehicles, two new measurement protocols (new phase of the Euro 6 standard): the WLTP (worldwide harmonized light vehicles test procedure) „ certification procedure, which is performed in a laboratory; the RDE (real driving emissions) procedure, which is performed „ on the road under real conditions, measures the pollutants emitted using a PEMS (portable emissions measurement system) and defined the admitted conformity factors (the excursion permitted between real usage and the regulatory limits of the WLTP protocol). The NO x conformity factor admitted has been 2.1 since September 2017 and will be changed to 1 in 2020 (excluding measurement dispersion, limited to 0.5). For the certification of its new vehicles in Europe, Groupe PSA is committed to respecting in terms of RDE a NOx conformity factor of less than 1 (excluding measurement dispersion, limited to 0.5) as of 1 September 2017, i.e. 3 years before the regulatory requirement in 2020. These new measuring protocols aim to be more representative of real-world driving conditions to thus reduce the difference in emissions between certification in a laboratory and real-world driving conditions. The Opel Vauxhall brands will gradually adopt the technologies to reduce pollutant emissions developed by Groupe PSA (approximately 15% of models in 2017 with the Crossland X and Grandland X, 40% in 2019 and 100% by 2024). The Group’s massive R&D investment policy aims to improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions (€649 million to develop powertrains in 2017). This approach is in synergy with the prevention of climate risks described in Section 2.2.1.1.1.

Being proactive in the debate concerning mobility-related public health and environmental issues, Groupe PSA has incorporated the issue of air quality into its research and development programmes for many years now. This has enabled it to roll out engines and technologies across its ranges that drastically reduce: particulate emissions: inventor of the diesel particulate filter „ (DPF), which Groupe PSA began selling in 2000, more than nine years before Euro 5 standards made it compulsory from September 2009; nitrous oxide emissions: Groupe PSA is the first car manufacturer „ to have opted to roll out the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) solution, reducing nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 95% and marketed since 2013 on Euro 6 vehicles. The groundbreaking technologies used to reduce the atmospheric pollutants produced by Groupe PSA vehicles are just as well suited to combustion vehicles as to hybrid vehicles. The range of solutions to improve air quality also include the electrification of vehicles, ranging from micro-hybridation such as Stop & Start, and mild hybridation (48 V mild hybrid: addition of a starter-alternator and a small 48 volt battery), up to hybrid vehicles that can be recharged by the customer, as well as electric “zero-emission” vehicles (ZEV), using a battery (Battery Electric Vehicle) or a fuel cell. In its Push to Pass strategic plan, the Group has committed to putting seven plug-in hybrid vehicles and five electric vehicles on the market between 2019 and 2021. By 2023, eight out of ten models proposed by the Group worldwide will be available in electric or plug-in hybrid versions. This represents 27 out of 34 models, including commercial vehicles (see Section 2.2.1.1.1).
