Résumé

Commercial refrigeration system design in North America has not been subjected to the pressures of HFC bans or high taxation of refrigerants as in other parts of the world and is still driven primarily by energy consumption and system cost. The recent move towards systems with lower refrigerant charge and lower leakage rates has been, for the most part, voluntary, driven by corporate initiatives that have been focused on the increasing awareness of the effects of greenhouse gas emissions on the environment and climate change. Government regulations have been slow to respond to these concerns and maximum leakage rates are still not mandated for systems operating with HFC refrigerants. However, this is expected to change soon.
