Summary

The RIEP (Refrigerant Inventory and Emissions Prevision) software has been developed by the CES to evaluate refrigerant emissions per fluid and application. Furthermore, it allows to implement forecasting scenarios. All calculations are based on RAC equipment databases created for different countries and regions. The CES is currently working out a large online platform aiming at providing the means for countries to establish their own refrigerant inventory and forecast scenarios using RIEP and the equipment databases that will be available for consultation, modification and improvement. Results will be publicly released using Open Data tools for better visualization, ease of comparison between refrigerants, applications and countries. This article provides a summary of the calculation method implemented in RIEP. The structure of the global platform is described. The interest of such an approach is then discussed, especially regarding public accessibility to a unique tool, sharing knowledge about inventories, existing and new technologies, refrigerant use as well as emission factors.
