Résumé

It is clear that refrigeration in various forms is essential to mankind. It is a prerequisite for sustainable development, to minimize harvest losses, enable vaccine transport and provide human comfort and so on. It is also clear that the use of these technologies contribute to emission of climate gasses, direct emissions of working fluids (mainly CFC, HCFC and HFCs) but also, to an even greater extent with indirect emission of CO2 for the associated power production and thus, also to resource depletion. However, there is a huge potential to improve the performance in all respects and, also, to save huge amount of primary energy by utilization of the heat pumping capability of refrigeration technologies. This article highlights two examples illustrating the ongoing process towards higher energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact for refrigeration technologies as a whole.
