Refrigeration and global warming.

Réfrigération et réchauffement de la planète.

Type of article: Article

Summary

On the basis of a study performed in 1997, this article summarizes options and consequences. The goal of a 60% reduction in the impact of refrigeration and air conditioning on global warming can be achieved by 2010 in the European Union. This reduction target can be achieved by ensuring that the use of HFCs is widespread in suitable contexts. Provided they are correctly designed and maintained, systems using ammonia, hydrocarbons or HFCs will have a very similar impact on global warming.
