Fluorinated gases are used in refrigeration and air-conditioning applications worldwide and contribute to global warming. The Montreal Protocol was extended to control the production and consumption of HFCs in the Kigali Amendment. EU adapted new F-gas Regulation from 2015. As switching of high GWP refrigerants to low GWP and confining refrigerants within the system become important, UN, IIR, US and EU are striving their efforts. UN Environment OzonAction promotes proper refrigerant management in developing countries. The US DOE directs building energy consumption reductions. This session provides updates on global refrigerant regulations and efforts to best use of refrigerants throughout lifetime.
