ERating
eRating is a certification, education, and labeling program for the passenger transportation sector developed by the Certification for Sustainable Transport (CST) at the University of Vermont.〔http://www.erating.org/images/pdfs/CST_1.0_Program_Manual.pdf〕 The eRating certification system is used by the Certification for Sustainable Transportation to rate vehicles based on criteria such as greenhouse gas emissions per passenger mile, emissions, alternative fuels, purchase of carbon offsets, and any training programs that the driver has undergone that may help with energy efficient driving. If enough standards are met, the vehicle is given an eRating certification.〔 == Program Description == The Certification for Sustainable Transportation's (CST) eRating certification program is an independent, third party certification, education, and labeling initiative for owners and operators, manufacturers, and passengers of transportation vehicles. The eRating certification program also functions as a sustainability index that weighs factors such as greenhouse gasses per passenger mile, environmental impacts, and even the use of alternative fuels and technologies in the transportation industry.〔http://www.uma.org/pdf/bmn111513.pdf〕 Two major works were used in developing the CST eRating certification program: the Federal Trade Commission’s Part 26-Guide for the Use of Environmental Marketing Claims, and the International Social and Environmental Accreditation and Labeling (ISEAL) Alliance planning framework. In May 2012, the CST finalized Step B-3, and transitioned to step E-1 to launch the CST eRating certification program.〔 The CST was designed to help improve economic, environmental, and energy efficiency within the passenger transportation sector. The program uses research-based criteria to evaluate vehicles and includes the driver training programs "Idle Free" and "Eco-Driving 101" to improve efficiency.
