Résumé

The UK has set a net zero carbon emission target for 2050, this is particularly challenging for hard to abate areas such as refrigeration where emissions are not fully quantified. Building resilience in transport, industrial and commercial refrigeration and ensuring direct and indirect emissions are significantly reduced to meet the UK net zero target will require innovation, a system approach to energy provision, skills for capacity building and enabling legislation.
This paper presents an analysis of scope 1 and scope 2 emissions from refrigeration in road transport, supermarkets, cold stores and food and drink manufacturing in the UK. Existing UK government databases have been analysed to determine the total emissions from refrigeration in these sectors, which are responsible for 1.4% of the UK total GHG emissions and 2.6% of the total electricity consumption. The paper also identifies the barriers and opportunities to meet the UK refrigeration net zero carbon targets.
