Document aim, intended audience Sample Clauses

Document aim, intended audience. 8. The EV Reference Guide is intended to serve as a single point of reference relative to the worldwide, environmentally-related EV requirements landscape as it was at the time of this data collection (September 2013). The document captures, based on the information provided by Contracting Parties and other WP.29 members, the existence and extent of regulations relating to critical EV attributes including any standards that are available for voluntary compliance. Additionally, the guide highlights any on-going efforts to develop appropriate standards, regulations or other appropriate requirements. The primary intended audiences of the document are members of government and non-governmental regulatory bodies and agencies involved in the implementation and adoption of policy and regulations relating to electrified vehicles. The guide will identify differences in requirements (regulatory and voluntary) as well as highlight gaps in the requirements framework, allowing Contracting Parties to consider actions to minimize differences and narrow gaps. In addition, the guide will be part of the public domain and, therefore, be available as a source of information to other EV industry stakeholders such as original equipment manufacturers and suppliers of electrified vehicle components such as batteries, power electronics and charging solutions.
