The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each me
13、mber body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International E
14、lectrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different type
15、s of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be h

19、 account in addressing sustainability issues.iv ISO 2016 All rights reservedBS ISO 14034:2016ISO 14034:2016(E)IntroductionThe objective of environmental technology verification (ETV) is to provide credible, reliable and independent verification of the performance of environmental technologies. An en
20、vironmental technology is a technology that either results in an environmental added value or measures parameters that indicate an environmental impact. Such technologies have an increasingly important role in addressing environmental challenges and achieving sustainable development.ETV contributes
21、to protection and conservation of the environment by promoting and facilitating market uptake of innovative environmental technologies, especially those that perform better than relevant alternatives. ETV is particularly applicable to those environmental technologies whose innovative features or per
22、formance cannot be fully assessed using existing standards. Through the provision of objective evidence, ETV provides an independent and impartial confirmation of the performance of an environmental technology based on reliable test data. ETV aims to strengthen the credibility of new, innovative tec
23、hnologies by supporting informed decision-making among interested parties.ETV was established in the United States in 1995, and similar programmes were later introduced in other countries, including Canada, several European Union member states, Japan, South Korea and the Philippines. The performance
24、 of many environmental technologies has since been verified in these countries under ETV programmes established at either the national or international level. Interest in joint, mutually recognized verifications performed under different ETV programmes has increased over the past decade. In 2008, th
25、e International Working Group on ETV (IWG-ETV), composed of international experts representing institutions operating an ETV scheme in Canada, the United States, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and the European Union, was established with the aim of exploring ways to accelerate international har
26、monization and mutual recognition of ETV programmes. The IWG-ETV reached a consensus that standardization of the ETV process by means of an International Standard is an appropriate way to establish the credibility and robustness of ETV world-wide.
