2024 Global HFC Breakdown

By 2024, 148 countries will be expected to start HFC phasedown. On top of the EU, USA, Japan, Canada, which have already started the HFC phasedown, Article-5 countries such as China, Brazil, Singapore, Panama and South Africa will start the HFC phasedown by implementing HFC quota.

Responsible Refrigeration

In the shipping industry, tackling fuel consumption is also often seen as the dominant solution for reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. In recent years, ship owners have been turning to cleaner fuels and optimising sailing routes. Responsible refrigeration is a comprehensive yet straightforward approach to decreasing refrigeration-caused emissions on board. It focuses on all the commonly overlooked areas of refrigeration by tackling direct and indirect emissions.

Refrigerant CO2 calculator

The refrigerant CO₂ calculator is developed to guide and encourage ship owners to adopt low GWP refrigerants. The calculator allows you to estimate the direct CO₂ emission you can avoid from your ship with low GWP alternatives. It is simple to use and requires only a limited amount of information from you.
