Author(s) : AFFUL J. E.

Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

Although under Article 5 the country was allowed a ten-year 'grace period', the government decided on a strategy to implement an accelerated ODS phaseout schedule that was well in advance of the Protocol's requirements. The phase-out strategy sought to: achieve the most significant ODS reductions by targeting the largest consumption sectors first (refrigeration and foam); minimize the costs to Ghanian industries and consumers. Within both sectors, appropriate phaseout strategies are described.
