The IOR's Beyond Refrigeration Net Zero working group has prepared a Policy Brief on the selection of refrigerant, to identify policy measures that would help support the path to Net Zero by users of refrigeration air conditioning and heat pump systems.
This 3rd policy brief now available as a draft for comment by members, is based on the recently produced IOR Guidance Note (no37) on Refrigerant Selection and the accompanying statement by the IOR Technical Committee that in order that to support net zero commitments equipment designers, purchasers, owners and operators select a refrigerant with the lowest GWP possible - provided that this doesn’t compromise efficiency.
With the on-going phase down and quota restrictions on HFC refrigerants having the greatest impact on the availability of higher GWP refrigerants as well as certain use bans under national regulations, there are very good commercial ans well as environmental reasons for moving to low GWP refrigerants.
The IOR Refrigerant Selection Policy Brief identifies key legislation and regulations that should support this – primarily the review of the GB F Gas Regulations that is expected in the first half of 2022.
