12-Oct-2018 | Bangkok | The Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) Heavy-Duty Vehicles Initiative (HDVI) is supporting the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) to reduce the air quality and near-term climate impacts of diesel emissions in the on-road transport sector. The “ASEAN COUNTRIES MEETING ON SOOT-FREE TRANSPORT: Senior Level Consultation on EURO 4/IV Implementation and on Roadmap to EURO 6/VI in ASEAN Countries” was convened on 11-12 October 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand.
The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), on behalf of the CCAC HDVI, has joined with the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), represented by the Regional Resource Centre for Asia and the Pacific (RRC.AP) to organize this meeting. Both ICCT and RRCAP had also organized this meeting in cooperation and coordination with the Pollution Control Department (PCD), Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Thailand, and UN Environment, Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific.
The meeting identified common obstacles and challenges to implement low-sulfur fuel and Euro 4/IV vehicle emission standards and advance to Euro 6/VI among ASEAN countries and exchange best practices. The meeting developed a draft joint technical workplan to address the support needed among ASEAN countries to overcome fuel quality and vehicle emission standard implementation challenges with an aim towards regional harmonization around soot-free Euro 6/VI emission levels.
