Preparing for next-generation air-conditioning and refrigeration technology.

Résumé

World leaders will reach a new global agreement on climate change in Copenhagen or later and responsible national governments are already implementing stringent limits on greenhouse gas emissions. Most significant to the choice of next-generation refrigerants and technologies is the global realization that high-global warming potential (GWP) HFCs are environmentally and economically unsustainable and will be phased down rapidly under the Montreal Protocol or a Climate Convention. Innovative companies and their suppliers have important targets of opportunity. New refrigerants are being commercialized with low global warming potentials, new technologies are being introduced with better energy efficiency, and natural refrigerants are gaining market share. In order to maximize the environmental benefits of next-generation air conditioning and refrigeration technology, it is important that new technologies have the highest achievable life-cycle climate performance. The challenge is to introduce new refrigerants and next-generation technologies where and when they are environmentally superior and to assure consumer safety and satisfaction. This presentation gives an overview of global and US actions that promote next-generation refrigeration and air-conditioning technology with better life-cycle climate performance (LCCP), focusing on of refrigerant choice for mobile air conditioning as a case study. It also describes how government and industry strategies impact the choice of refrigerants and suggests ways that government and nongovernment organizations worldwide can cooperate in protecting the climate and fragile ozone layer.
