Article written on 26 January 2023

On Wednesday, January 25, 2023, the French Council of State issued its decision regarding the application to annul the decree of April 11, 2022, which made vehicles (heavy goods vehicles, buses and coaches) running exclusively on B100 eligible for the Crit’Air 1 sticker.

This decision is based exclusively on procedural and formal grounds. Under no circumstances does the Council of State call into question the environmental benefits of B100.

As such, heavy goods vehicles, buses and coaches running exclusively on B100 remain fully eligible for the Crit’Air 1 sticker, in accordance with the decree of October 4, 2022.
