Standards Development
This document specifies a uniform, reproducible testing process for various drive units, chassis, constructions and lifting devices for the refuse collection vehicles described in EN 1501 (all parts, excluding EN 1501-4), with which a comparison for energy consumption can be performed.
This document specification defines criteria for a reference area with regard to a synthesized tour (test circuit). This therefore serves to determine a representative test circuit and/or data for a software calculation tool, e.g. VECTO.
This document also specifies a theoretical method for calculating the energy consumption of a rear loaded RCV bodywork during a single tour.
NOTE VECTO (Vehicle Energy Consumption calculation TOol) is a simulation tool that has been developed by the European Commission for determining CO2 emissions and fuel consumption from heavy duty vehicles with a gross vehicle mass above 3 500 kg.

NWIP to start the revision of ISO 24162:2022 as EN ISO under the Vienna Agreement (ISO LEAD - work would be done in ISO/TC 279/WG 2), as agreed with CEN/TC 183 DECISION 5/2025:
DECISION 5/2025 – Deletion of WI 00183129 for adoption of ISO 24162:2022 as EN ISO and restart revision under VA CEN/TC 183 - Waste management
- having considered the information on the upcoming revision of ISO 24162:2022 “Test method for energy consumption of refuse collection vehicles” by ISO/TC 297 Waste collection and transportation management;
- having considered the exceeded deadlines of WI 00183129 “Test method for energy consumption of refuse collection vehicles”;
- having considered the CEN/TC 183/WG 2 recommendation to cancel WI 00183129 and re-start the project as EN ISO 24162 under the Vienna Agreement (ISO lead);
- agrees to initiate a 4-week CIB to cancel WI 00183129;
- requests the secretariat to re-start the intended project under the Vienna Agreement (ISO lead). The decision was taken by unanimity (6 positive votes, 0 negative votes and 0 abstentions).
