FQMS - Fuel quality monitoring system 2007
Description
According to the European Fuel Quality Directive EU Directive 98/70/EC, Member States must annually review and report on compliance with environmental quality standards for fuels as part of the Fuel Quality Monitoring System (FQMS). Since 2003, the Federal Environment Agency has been carrying out these quality controls in Austria. In 2007, around 8.26 million tonnes of fuel were sold in Austria, 6.3 million tonnes (approximately 76 %) of which were diesel fuels. In order to check the quality of the fuels, a total of 303 samples were taken at 245 filling stations throughout Germany - 150 of them in the winter and 153 in the summer half-year. Diesel fuel has been tested for compliance with ON EN 590 and petrol fuel has been tested for compliance with ON EN 228. In one sample, two exceedances of the specified standard parameters were detected.
