Résumé

Since the 1st July 2012, as part of the Clean Energy Future Plan, synthetic greenhouse gas hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants attract an “equivalent carbon price” based on their global warming potential. Because of this ‘Levy’ HFC refrigerants are more expensive to purchase and replace. As a result changes will be made to the way air conditioning and refrigeration systems are designed, constructed and operated leading to new business opportunities for system operators and technical service providers.
