ShareNew guidelines for the heat pump sector: EHPA releases F-gas regulation guide
The European Heat Pump Association (EHPA) has published a detailed guide on the new F-Gas regulation, helping the sector navigate key changes.
The EU’s revised F-Gas regulation (2024/573), which came into force on March 11, 2024, introduces stricter controls on hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), aiming to accelerate the transition to low Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants. Key measures include a phased reduction of HFCs, bans on high-GWP refrigerants by 2030, and enhanced leakage controls to support the EU’s climate targets.

EHPA’s new 19-page guide, released this week, provides practical insights for stakeholders in the heat pump sector. It covers critical topics such as market placement rules, certification requirements, and customs procedures, ensuring businesses can smoothly adapt to the updated regulations.
The guide is available on EHPA’s website and in the FRIDOC document database.
