Overview

• Two norms published in the federal register take effect immediately, mandating speed governors and geolocators on LP gas fleets with stepped compliance windows.
• Units over 5,000 liters and at least 10 years old must comply within four months, while all other vehicles have six months to meet the requirements.
• Oversight shifts from visual checks to accredited technical testing, with documented maintenance compliance to be verified before ASEA.
• The National Energy Commission will issue mandatory digital QR codes for all fuel-transporting units in roughly 15 days to strengthen traceability and curb illegal traffic.
• Industry analysts warn that upgrading more than 35,000 units could be costly and may fuel pressure to revisit the regulated tariff cap.
